Our History and Vision
Founded in 1978 and based in Denver, Grease Monkey has grown to more than 500 centers internationally with operations in the United States, Mexico, China, Colombia, and Saudi Arabia. The brand has flourished, thanks to a commitment to customer service, innovation, and driving strong ROI for franchisees.
$514 Billion Industry
Total sales expected for the automotive aftermarket industry by 2024. That’s up from $325 billion in 2021.The auto repair industry is massive, steadily growing, and resistant to downturns.
One reason Grease Monkey® is a great business opportunity is because more than 99% of the vehicles on U.S. roads need regular oil changes. And while electric vehicles are very slowly gaining market share, it will be decades before they make up the majority of cars on the road.

We're part of

Grease Monkey is part of FullSpeed Automotive®, one of the largest and fastest-growing quick lube organizations not owned by an oil company. FullSpeed is focused on helping franchisees open new businesses while also acquiring auto service centers from independent operators who are ready to sell. The goal is to use economies of scale to boost purchasing power and support for every location — whether the location is owned by a franchisee or by FullSpeed Automotive itself.
