For the five-week reporting period of June 2012, Command announced revenue of $9.35 million, an increase of 18.7% on revenue of $7.88 million in the like year-ago period. There were 54 company-owned stores in June, the same number as June 2011.

Mr. Welstad noted, “Command Center has been able over the past two years to broaden and strengthen its reach into a wider range of service needs. The ability to identify and respond to a growing demand for our services has been a catalyst for the company’s growth, and we are confident in the ability of our people and systems to help Command be even more successful going forward.”
