Benefits of the Express Oil Change Franchise Opportunity
 
Express Oil Change Franchise Opportunities (Click Here)You don’t need any previous automotive knowledge to be an Express Oil Change Franchisee – we will teach you how to manage a successful franchise.
  • We have a comprehensive 8 week training program to teach you ( or your operator), everything you’ll need to know to operate the business. 
  • Our franchisees are former bankers, teachers, software engineers, and business executives; what they have in common is a strong desire to build their own successful business.  
Our exceptional business model allows you to own and operate your franchise and still have time for your family.
  • Express Oil Change store hours of operation are typically 8am to 6pm M-F, and 8am -5pm Saturday, closed on Sunday, yet we still lead the industry in sales and customer counts.
Our unique store staffing and compensation model make it easy for you to manage the business, allowing you to operate each of your locations with only 6 or 7 full time employees.
  • Our stores employ only full-time workers, allowing for a better-trained and knowledgeable crew that results in a better retail experience for the customer, and higher sales for you.

Express Oil Change units have 33% higher customer car counts and 43% higher sales than the industry average

Express Oil Change grows its business by focusing on building car counts through speed of service, and the quality and trustworthiness of the service.
  • We deliver a 10 minute oil change while the customer waits in their car.
  • We never push or oversell products to customers who don’t need them.
We do not build the business by focusing on raising the average transaction by selling extra parts and services as much of the industry does.
