A Grease Monkey Franchise: More Than Just Oil Changes- It's Good Business!
Grease Monkey International, Inc. is one of the largest vehicle preventive maintenance franchisors not owned by a major oil company. Our independence gives us the advantage of being able to focus on servicing our customers' needs, rather than selling a specific brand of oil products.
It also allows us more aggressive purchasing power within the industry so we can supply our franchisees with the products and services they need to build and run a successful operation.
Founded in 1978, Grease Monkey celebrates over 25 years of commitment to delivering - with excellence - the preventive maintenance services all vehicles require. Today, Grease Monkey has approximately 240 centers across the United States and in Mexico and the market potential for Grease Monkey centers continues to fuel our growth.
