Car Keys Express is best known for discount mobile key replacement for fleets and dealerships. The company has been growing rapidly since the 2000s as carmakers began to add expensive features and technologies to keys. When asked why the company was moving into the consumer segment Owner and Founder Mark Lanwehr said, “Increases in automotive key technology have driven up their cost. In the eighties, you’d pay a few dollars to replace a set of keys, today it can exceed a thousand dollars.”
Lanwehr added, “We’ve spent fifteen years perfecting a mobile solution for businesses to manage this increasing cost. It’s grown us into a nationwide company and put us on Inc. Magazine’s list of the fastest growing companies two years in a row. Now we’re offering consumers the same solution. Carmakers have had a virtual monopoly for decades. We’re the first to bring it to consumers. With 250,000,000 North American drivers, it's a significant opportunity.”
