Take 5 Oil Change, a quick-lube chain with locations across 17 states, is now franchising in the Southeast and beyond. The business already has two franchised locations in the Carolinas.

Multi-unit franchising is a focus for Take 5, with management saying they want to ensure franchisees have the opportunity to build their own business within a community and region.

“Our brand has an incredible amount of experience and infrastructure to support new franchisees,” said Ted Rippey, vice president of franchising. “As we continue our path as the fastest-growing quick lube chain in the country, we are excited to bring on partners to further increase our footprint in the U.S.”

“We are focused on finding the right partner, rather than simply a franchisee,” Rippey added. “We see this as an opportunity for a long-term partnership positioned for growth.”

Take 5 has nearly 300 corporate-owned shops. Its parent company is Driven Brands, which also operates Meineke, Maaco and Carstar shops, among others.
