Buy a Fleet Services International Franchise

Fleet Services International (FSI) is a mobile, on-site maintenance and repair business serving commercial vehicle fleets across the United States. Founded in 2001, it brings preventative maintenance and breakdown service directly to a client’s location rather than requiring vehicles to be driven to a shop, cutting the downtime that costs fleet operators money.

The business is strictly B2B. Dealers service delivery and logistics operators, HVAC, plumbing, landscaping and electrical contractors, and municipal and government fleets, rather than individual retail customers. FSI is co-branded with NASCAR Hall of Famer Richard Petty and his Petty’s Garage operation, lending the network a recognised automotive name when approaching commercial fleet managers.

FSI runs as a dealership rather than a true franchise: there are no franchise fees or royalties, and owners hold an exclusive, protected territory and keep the profits they generate. Core revenue comes from regularly scheduled preventative maintenance, supplemented by emergency and breakdown calls. The model is built for an owner who manages and grows a territory, not a technician working on vehicles.

Why buy a Fleet Services International Franchise?

Buying a Fleet Services International franchise resale means stepping into the commercial automotive aftermarket, an essential B2B category where vehicles have to stay on the road regardless of the wider economy. Scheduled preventative maintenance can build predictable, recurring revenue and long-term client retention, while emergency call-outs add higher-value work on top.

Two assets stand out. The Richard Petty and Petty’s Garage co-branding gives dealers a nationally recognised automotive name when winning commercial accounts, where credibility carries weight. FSI also provides access to pre-negotiated supplier relationships, reported to include NAPA, AutoZone, CarQuest and Advance Auto Parts, helping dealers secure competitive pricing on parts and supplies. With no franchise fees or royalties and a protected territory, owners retain the income their accounts generate.

Fleet Services International – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    FSI provides proprietary onboarding and hands-on operational training, with no automotive experience required, plus continuous training as service technology evolves and ongoing guidance from corporate specialists. Dealers receive an enterprise-class operating software package and access to pre-negotiated vendor pricing through suppliers reported to include NAPA, AutoZone, CarQuest and Advance Auto Parts. Buyers of an existing FSI dealership should confirm what initial and transfer training, software access and ongoing dealer support carry over when ownership changes.

  2. Ideal Owner

    FSI suits a business-minded operator who wants to act as the CEO of a territory rather than turn a wrench: someone comfortable with B2B selling, building and managing service teams, and developing long-term relationships with commercial and municipal fleet managers. No automotive or mechanical background is needed. The model rewards owners who stay hands-on with sales and operations, are organised around scheduling and recurring service, and are motivated to grow market share within a protected territory.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    FSI's most visible credibility signal is its exclusive co-branding with NASCAR Hall of Famer Richard Petty and Petty's Garage, a widely recognised name in American motorsport and high-performance automotive work. The company positions itself as the original and leading on-site commercial fleet maintenance provider, operating since 2001, and is a Small Business Administration-approved organisation. For resale buyers, brand-level recognition should be weighed alongside the specific territory's reputation with its fleet clients, including service reliability and account retention.

  4. Industry / Market

    FSI operates in the US automotive aftermarket, valued at roughly $238 billion in 2025, within which commercial vehicle service and repair is a substantial sub-segment. Demand is supported by an ageing, heavily used commercial fleet, rising vehicle complexity, and uptime and compliance pressures that push operators toward outsourced, on-site maintenance. Because commercial vehicles must keep running in any economy, the category tends to be resilient. For resale buyers, local fleet density and account mix largely drive a territory's value.
