The Premier Companies has grown from 4 stores to nearly 80 in five years. Founder and CEO Trooper Earle predicts the company will surpass 100 locations during 2009 despite the tight commercial credit environment. With so many new single-store franchisees, insiders say that the next big growth spurt for Premier will come all at once as relatively new owners open planned second and third locations.
