Led by tax industry expert John Hewitt, Liberty Tax Service was founded in 1997 after Hewitt and several key employees left Jackson Hewitt just before the company was sold for $483 million to Cendant Corporation (NYSE:CD). Jackson Hewitt was spun-off from Cendant in 2004 and trades on the New York Stock Exchange. Liberty Tax has grown to over 3,000 locations in the United States and Canada and is currently ranked as the #3 franchise company in the world by Entrepreneur Magazine.
"We believe there are many interesting synergies possible in working with Jackson Hewitt," stated John Hewitt.
