Appell Striping Expands to Houston with First Texas Franchisees

Appell Striping, a leader in professional pavement maintenance and line striping services, is thrilled to announce its first location coming to Texas. The new franchise will be owned by Chanon and David Wahlstrom, marking an exciting milestone for both the brand and the couple as they embark on their entrepreneurial journey in West Houston.

Chanon Wahlstrom along with her husband David, will be leading the charge for Appell in the Houston area. With her strong background in finance and his 20 plus years of experience in marketing, they make a dynamic pair of franchisees. Having recently relocated from San Diego to Houston, the husband-and-wife duo were ready for a new challenge, deciding to add franchise owners to their resumes. After doing their due diligence, they were impressed with Appell’s tremendous opportunity with open white space in a thriving market and the ability for David to operate the business out of their house. They look forward to hitting the ground running with their West Houston location set to officially launch on March 17, 2025, and businesses are welcome to begin submitting inquiries and requesting quotes immediately.

“Our journey into franchising was very intentional,” said David Wahlstrom. “We knew we wanted something B2B, and after researching several opportunities, Appell Striping stood out. The co-founders, Bryan and Mike Appell, truly impressed us with their work ethic, values, and dedication to their franchisees. Their commitment to guiding us through the process and assisting us with national work while we build our reputation in the area are incredible assets.”

This announcement comes at a particularly exciting time as it marks Appell’s entrance into one of the fastest-growing regions in the country. The Houston area has seen a steady increase in population, growing more than 6% since 2021, with no signs of slowing down, leading to the rapid development of the city, the Wahlstrom’s are particularly excited about the untapped potential in the West Houston region. They see a clear opportunity to elevate industry standards in the area and offer a refined, systemized approach to pavement marking. Their initial focus will be on Fort Bend and Waller Counties, as well as the Katy area, with long-term plans to expand into Harris County.

“We love this area and can’t wait to contribute to its growth and success and further integrate into the community,” said Chanon Wahlstrom. “We’ve been welcomed with such open arms and we look forward to providing an impactful business that will not only provide jobs but will also allow us to help support local development and improve infrastructure as the Houston area continues to boom.”

With a focus on both aesthetics and functionality, Appell ensures that parking lots leave a lasting impression on customers visiting a business. Appell Striping’s commitment to quality and efficiency makes it the go-to provider for huge national brands, including the largest coffee and fast-food restaurants in the United States.

“We couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome Chanon and David as the first Appell Striping franchisees in Texas,” said co-founder of Appell Striping, Bryan Appell. “Their dedication, hard work, and passion for quality align strongly with our core values, and we’re beyond confident that they are the perfect pair to lead Appell’s entry into the Lone Star State.”

Appell currently has five locations open and operating across the U.S. in NY, FL, NJ, GA and PA, and unlimited white space for franchise owners looking to break into the space or build their portfolio. The brand is looking to partner with hands-on, motivated individuals—ideally those with experience in home services, construction, or related industries.
