CHARLOTTE, N.C., Dec. 20,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Take 5 Oil Change, a leader in
the quick lube industry, celebrated a momentous occasion today with
the grand opening of its 1,000th location. This marks an
extraordinary achievement, propelling the brand's growth by more
than 1,400% since its acquisition by Driven Brands in 2016.
Following on the grand opening of its 300th franchised location
in the U.S. earlier this year, Take 5 Oil Change continues to
solidify its position as a leading player in the quick lube
industry. The stay-in-your-car oil change franchise climbed the
ranks on the Franchise Times' Top 400 and Entrepreneur's Franchise
500 lists in 2023, coming in at #87 and #106, respectively.
"This is a major milestone for our brand, which started with
humble beginnings as a local oil change shop in New Orleans back in the 1980s," said
Mo Khalid, EVP and Group President,
Maintenance, Driven Brands. "Since acquiring Take 5 Oil Change with
only 50 locations, we have seen tremendous growth and have more in
the pipeline to look forward to."
The newest service center, operated by franchisee Purple Square
Group and located in Fort Pierce,
Florida, hosted a 1,000th grand opening
celebration in honor of the milestone. The event featured Take 5's
partners and premier oil suppliers, RelaDyne and Mobil 1. RelaDyne
showcased a sprint car exhibition and hosted a meet and greet with
accomplished sprint car driver, Logan
Schuchart. Mobil 1, one of Take 5's newest collaborators,
added to the excitement with a NASCAR vehicle display and an
immersive racing simulator, creating an unforgettable experience
for attendees.
As part of its commitment to local communities, Take 5 Oil
Change will make a charitable donation of $5,000 to GraceWay Village, which serves the
Fort Pierce community. GraceWay
Village is a nonprofit organization dedicated to assisting
residents who face challenges related to poverty, food scarcity,
homelessness, and other pressing needs. Take 5 Oil Change's support
of local communities runs deep. Throughout 2023, Take 5 Oil Change
