Grease Monkey Oil Changes & More - Franchise
About Grease Monkey®
Founded in 1978 and headquartered in Denver, Colorado, the Grease Monkey brand currently operates more than 400 centers internationally with operations in Mexico, China, Colombia and Saudi Arabia. Grease Monkey is one of the nation’s largest independent franchisors of automotive oil change centers and is looking to expand in 2021 by opening 30+ new locations. Grease Monkey Franchising, LLC, serves more than 2 million customers each year.
More Cars On The Road Than Ever Before
There are more vehicles on the road in the United States than at any other time in history, with an average vehicle age of 11+ years and climbing. Besides routine maintenance, these older vehicles have an increasing need for automotive service. With more than 275 million vehicles on the road, the earnings of the oil industry is estimated at approximately $6 billion annually. Leading oil change services in today’s world must be fast, accurate and performed by certified professionals—that’s why Grease Monkey offers our Pit Crew Guarantee™. Our franchisees maximize their time to drive their revenue and leave the competition in the dust.
Why Invest In A Franchise?
With a leadership team comprised of former owner-operators with extensive experience in senior-level roles on the franchisor side, Grease Monkey® possesses the industry knowledge that positions its franchisees for success. We can help you grow because we've been there ourselves.
Driven By A Proven Strategy
Our focus on being our customer’s trusted partner dictates the way we operate and the way we train. We show you our proven approach that has helped drive high customer retention rates so that you and your crew can deliver on the Grease Monkey promise of superior service time and again.
Low-Cost Build Options
In addition to acquiring a model that allows for build-outs to be tailored to the area being served, franchise owners can add on an additional revenue stream through our Monkey Shine® Car Wash. In addition, Grease Monkey and Monkey Shine® facilities are relatively simple to operate, with a streamlined operating environment and limited inventory requirements. We don’t require our franchisees to have experience in the automotive industry because we provide comprehensive training and support in all aspects of center operations.
Backed By Industry Veterans
With over 70 years of combined experience, Grease Monkey is part of the FullSpeed Automotive™ family of brands, one of the nation’s largest franchisors of automotive service centers. We’re not owned by an oil company, which means there is no obligation to buy a specified brand of products, letting us negotiate the best possible pricing for our franchisees. We make recommendations without dictating what products franchisees must use, keeping our owner-operators in the driver's seat.
Proudly Independent
Grease Monkey is not owned by a major oil company. This means that we can focus on providing customers the best products and services in a way that reinforces our goal of being their trusted partner.
Our Guarantees Keep Customers Coming Back
The Certified Pit Crew Time Guarantee: Grease Monkey knows that our customers’ time is valuable. That’s why our Certified Pit Crew provides a service time promise to customers right up front. Customers watch the Pit Crew Timer countdown, and for every minute over that promise, we refund our customer $1. Get In. Get Out. Get Going. ™
