About Strickland Brothers 10-Minute Oil Change
Strickland Brothers 10 Minute Oil Change is an automotive maintenance franchise built around fast, drive-thru oil changes with no appointment needed. Customers stay in their vehicle while technicians complete the service in about ten minutes. Alongside oil changes, stores offer complimentary courtesy checks, fleet servicing and, at select locations, state inspection and emissions services. Founded in 2016 and franchising since 2019, the brand serves everyday drivers and B2B fleet accounts.
The model is brick-and-mortar, run from small leased quick-lube stores rather than owned real estate, and supports owner-operator or semi-absentee ownership. Marketing, inventory ordering and stocking are handled centrally, and stores run on linked POS and back-office systems that track key performance indicators. Strickland Brothers has taken equity investment from Princeton Equity Partners and uses Franchise FastLane for development.
The network spans 150-plus company-operated locations and a growing base of franchised stores across multiple states. The brand positions itself on hospitality and transparency, letting customers watch the work being done, and trials new products in its own stores before rolling them out to franchisees.
Franchisee Support
Initial training runs through Strickland Brothers University, its e-learning platform for owners and staff, plus three to five hours of video modules and five full days of instruction at the corporate office with in-store practice. Each owner is assigned a Field Business Coach who holds weekly meetings after opening, reviews income statements monthly and visits quarterly. Ongoing support covers monthly video workshops, an annual convention, managed marketing, preferred-vendor and Valvoline supply programs, and President's Club perks. Resale buyers should confirm what onboarding and system access transfers to incoming owners and staff.
Brand Accolades & Awards
Strickland Brothers ranked #423 on Entrepreneur's Franchise 500 in 2024 and earlier appeared at #583 on the 2020 Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies. Founder and CEO Justin Strickland was named an EY Entrepreneur Of The Year 2022 Southeast Award winner, and the company has been recognised as a Best Workplace in the franchise category. Strong customer review scores across its locations add to its visibility. For resale buyers, brand-level recognition should be weighed alongside the specific territory's local reputation, reviews and referral strength.
Industry / Market
Strickland Brothers operates in the US oil change service market, valued at about $8.11 billion in 2024 and projected to grow near 5.9% a year through 2030 (Grand View Research). Demand is steady and largely non-discretionary: vehicles need regular oil changes regardless of the wider economy, and the ageing US vehicle fleet keeps cars in service longer. Quick-lube formats also benefit from convenience-led demand as drivers favour fast, no-appointment service over dealerships. For resale buyers, local traffic, competition and fleet accounts shape an individual store's demand.
Ideal Owner
Strickland Brothers suits a hands-on local operator comfortable running a fast-paced, high-volume service counter and managing a small team of technicians under a store manager. Automotive experience is not required, since the service is standardised and systems-driven, but the owner needs to be customer-focused, process-disciplined and able to hold service speed and quality steady through busy periods. The managed-marketing model also makes semi-absentee ownership workable for owners who prefer to oversee performance and staff rather than work the bays themselves.
