MADISONVILLE, LA, Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Patriot Liner, the veteran-founded, American-made spray-on bed liner brand and flagship of Patriot Aftermarket Partners, has added more than 30 new dealers in 2026, making it one of the fastest growing bed liner brands in the country. More than 20 additional locations are in final onboarding for Q4 2026 and Q1 2027.
New dealers this year include shops in Murrieta, Calif.; Midland, Texas.; Savannah, Ga.; Spartanburg, S.C.; Windsor, Va.; Vineland, N.J.; Tunkhannock, Pa.; Glasgow, Ky.; Prattville, Ala.; Harrison, Mich.; De Pere, Wis. ;Kenner, La. and more.
Patriot Liner is built differently than franchise systems. Dealers pay no franchise fees and no royalties, keep full ownership of their businesses and operate in protected territories. Many are established shops adding Patriot Liner to an existing business.
“We never believed the future of this industry was asking successful independent business owners to give up their independence,” said Josh DeLaune, President of Patriot Aftermarket Partners. “Give good operators a great product, protect their territory, support them in the field and deliver opportunities they couldn’t access on their own. The growth we’re seeing proves that model works.”
“Our dealers aren’t numbers on a franchise development report,” said Tim Tyrka, Vice President of Patriot Aftermarket Partners. “They’re independent business owners. When they win, Patriot wins.”
Dealers gain the Patriot Liner brand, technical support, training, marketing programs and lead generation tools, plus access to commercial work through Patriot Fleet Solutions, a nationwide upfitting network.
One Brand. One Standard.
Patriot Liner is manufactured in the United States and applied with professional high-pressure plural-component equipment by trained applicators. Qualifying truck-bed applications are backed by a Nationwide Limited Lifetime Warranty.
“A national brand is only as strong as the experience a customer receives at the local level,” DeLaune said. “Whether someone buys a Patriot Liner in Florida, Texas, Pennsylvania or California, the Patriot name has to mean something.”
