NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y., June 04, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tech repair brand uBreakiFix opens its newest location, uBreakiFix Niagara Falls, on June 4 at 6604 Niagara Falls Boulevard. This is the brand’s third location in the greater Buffalo area, joining stores in Williamsville and Hamburg.
uBreakiFix services anything with a power button, including smartphones, game consoles, tablets, computers, drones, hoverboards, and everything in between. To date, uBreakiFix has completed more than 4 million repairs. While common fixes include cracked screens, software issues, and camera issues, the brand offers support for most technical problems on any electronic device, regardless of make or model.
Through strategic partnerships with leading technology companies, including Samsung and Google, uBreakiFix provides Samsung Galaxy customers and Google Pixel and Pixelbook customers with manufacturer-backed, same-day repair services using genuine parts. Through the partnership with Samsung, Galaxy owners can get in and out-of-warranty repairs at more than 300 locations nationwide, with most repairs completed in two hours or less.
uBreakiFix Niagara Falls is locally owned by Nate Bautz and Lonney Krentz, who also own the brand’s Williamsville and Buffalo locations. Both born and raised Buffalonians, Bautz and Krentz plan to open several more uBreakiFix stores in Western New York.
“We knew there was a need in our hometown for skilled repairs with honest and hardworking people behind it,” Bautz said. “We pride ourselves in providing excellent customer service and making a personal connection to all those who enter our stores. In today’s world, our devices are our lifelines, and we know firsthand how inconvenient it is to be separated from them. At uBreakiFix, we strive to provide a convenient, hassle-free experience that gets our customers back up and running in no time.”
uBreakiFix was founded in 2009 by millennial duo Justin Wetherill and David Reiff, who later partnered with Eddie Trujillo to transition their Internet-based brand to a brick and mortar model. By offering convenience, accessibility, and unparalleled customer service, uBreakiFix filled a gap in the repair marketplace and has since emerged as an industry leader in growth, service offerings, and authorized partnerships. In 2018, Wetherill was inducted into the Forbes Technology Council, and uBreakiFix earned a top spot on Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500® list, ranking #18 overall, #1 in the Electronics Repair category, and #1 on the Top New Franchises list.
uBreakiFix has more than 400 locations open across the U.S. and Canada. The brand opened 21 new stores during the first quarter of 2018 and plans to increase growth each quarter throughout the year. For more information on uBreakiFix franchising, visit http://ubreakifix.com/franchising.
