Hybrid Senior Manager, Car Wash Operations chez NOURIA

Golden Nozzle Car Wash started in the 1970’s as a complement to the other motoring public businesses owned by F.L. Roberts & Company, headquartered in Springfield, MA. The name ‘Golden Nozzle’ derived from the color of the gas station pumps at F.L. Robert gas stations in Western Massachusetts.

In the fall of 2016, Nouria Energy acquired F.L. Roberts & Company’s convenience stores and Golden Nozzle Car Wash locations in Massachusetts and Connecticut.  As a Nouria company, Golden Nozzle Car Wash has become the gold standard for car care in the region.  The chain has grown and expanded exponentially since becoming part of the Nouria family, opening and rebranding existing car wash facilities in five New England states. Golden Nozzle’s successful monthly wash membership program began in 2008. Members of the monthly wash program enjoy unlimited car washes at any Golden Nozzle locations in Massachusetts, Connecticut,
Maine, New Hampshire and Rhode Island.

It’s a Great Day for a Golden Nozzle Car Wash! Proper maintenance always includes the routine washing of your vehicle. Winter hazards like sand and salt need to be thoroughly washed from your vehicle’s body and undercarriage.
