The first Merlin Muffler & Brake store recently opened for business in Fayetteville. The store is located at 280 North Glynn Street and is operated by Bruce Quinnell.

Quinnell has 25 years experience in the automotive industry. The first 10 years of his career were spent in automotive parts counters sales. During the last 15 years, Quinnell spent working in management capacities ranging from automotive parts to auto sales.

Quinnell said Merlin's philosophy led him to opening a store in Fayetteville.

“I researched many franchise opportunities over two years and most of them were only concerned with the money. If you had it, you could open a franchise. I liked Merlin's philosophy in selecting franchise candidates. By utilizing a thorough screening and interviewing process, they ensure that they are recruiting franchisees whose primary interest is treating customers honestly, fairly and openly,” he said.

Hours at the new store are 7:30 a.m.-6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 7:30 a.m.-4 p.m. on Saturday. The store is closed on Sunday. Appointments can be made by calling 678-817-0068, but walk-ins are always welcome.
