Overview

Launched in 1991, the Creative Colors International(CCI) franchise system was created through its affiliate, J&J’s Creative Colors, the original industry leader in refurbishment techniques and systems. Today, both companies continue to be family owned and operated by their second generation. Creative Colors International is recognized as the leader in the repair, reconditioning, protection, and color restoration of leather, vinyl, fabric, plastic and carpeting in the automotive, airplane, marine, furniture, commercial, and residential markets. Through proprietary technology and eco-friendly products, CCI restores damaged material at a fraction of replacement costs, saving customers up to 90 percent. CCI repairs are stronger than the original area and are nearly invisible to the naked eye. In the Automotive, Furniture and Commercial Markets, CCI offers on-site repair and restoration to all types of leather, vinyl, fabric, plastic and carpeting by repairing and re dyeing holes, cuts, tears, burns, scrapes, fading and discoloration. The franchise has many relationships with national companies, particularly in the hospitality and rental car markets.
