 PROFILE
Where there's a will for a new TV, rent-to-own chain Bestway finds a way for customers unable to pay cash or get credit. Bestway operates nearly 80 stores in seven southern states -- mostly in Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina, and Tennessee, but also in Arkansas, Georgia, and South Carolina. The stores offer weekly and monthly rates on brand-name furniture, electronics, appliances, and jewelry. Customers may return products and cancel rental agreements at any time or renew at the end of each rental period; lease agreements also include purchase options. Director James O'Donnell and business partner Mark Masur own 53% of Bestway.
