Who we are

HOW WE STAND OUT FROM COMPETITORS

Independent and Proud

• As one of the largest oil change franchises not owned by an oil company, we maintain the freedom to always prioritize what’s best for our franchisees and their customers. That means top-quality service at the best prices, without the influence of supplier ownership.

Flexible by Design

• Our construction and design plans are built with flexibility in mind, giving you the freedom to take advantage of more real estate opportunities. That adaptability can mean faster timelines, smarter investments, and real savings in both time and money.

We Don’t Just Service Vehicles—We Serve People

• Every customer is unique, just like every car. That’s why we take the time to listen, understand their needs, and earn their trust. With top-tier customer service ratings and a high rate of repeat business, we’ve built a reputation that fuels long-term growth—for us and for your business.

Multi-Unit Opportunities. Nationwide Growth.

• While many major quick lube chains have stalled, we’re shifting into high gear—with plans to open hundreds of new locations in the coming years. If you're looking to grow with a brand that’s built for success, let’s talk.

Why choose Grease Monkey?

Nearly every American drives, and together, we log about 3.3 trillion miles per year. With vehicles being kept longer than ever—an average of 12.6 years in 2024, and 23% of all vehicles now 20 years or older—routine maintenance has never been more critical.

In 2025, over 307 million vehicles are expected to be on U.S. roads—and more than 90% of them will still need regular oil changes. While EVs continue to gain traction, their impact on the overall market remains steady but gradual. Gas-powered vehicles still dominate, largely due to the long lifespan of existing cars. Even by 2050, projections show that most vehicles in operation will still rely on gas.

At Grease Monkey, we’re staying ahead of the curve. If EVs ever do take the lead, we’ll be ready. Although they don’t require engine oil, they still need tires, brake fluid, coolant, cabin air filters, brake pads, batteries, and other routine maintenance. That’s why we’re investing in market research and future-focused services—so we can serve every driver, no matter what powers their ride.

Who we're looking for

Grease Monkey welcomes entrepreneurs from all backgrounds. Even without an automotive repair background, you’ll be equipped with the tools and knowledge to succeed. From the beginning, you’ll have access to extensive training programs; ongoing marketing support to help you attract and retain customers; and a committed franchise support team focused on your growth.

We look for individuals who continuously strive for improvement; empower and uplift their teams; and foster an environment of honesty, respect, and collaboration.

Franchises aren’t sold—they’re awarded to the right candidates. Our path to ownership ensures a mutual fit by helping you understand our brand and culture, and allowing our executive team to assess your strengths, experience, and vision.

Training and Support

The training process is very important to our customers. Studies show that customers want to know that your employees are certified. At Grease Monkey, employees wear pit crew shirts to show their certification. You’ll become certified, too.

The first step of your training is learning our proven system. Our online training platform, FullSpeed Automotive University, is available 24/7. The training is very robust and has more than 230+ courses – some of which are required. This is the platform you’ll use to train your own people. In addition, you’ll spend a week in Denver at our New Franchisee Training School, and we’ll show you how to differentiate Grease Monkey from other quick lube businesses.

Our Training School includes:

• Grease Monkey processes that go beyond the oil change to leave a strong customer impression
• Staff presentations to help you understand key business systems
