Jiffy Lube

Does anyone know if Jiffy Lube locations are owned individually or are they all corporately owned? Don't want to look dumb if I go calling on them.

Check out this chart. Over 2000 units and zero are company owned.

Having contacted Jiffy Lubes what you're not seeing is that individual store owners are far and few. The local Jiffy Lube here is owned by a corporation in MD. They own 56 in MD, NJ and PA. I'm also in contact with the local Valvoline Instant Oil Changes and this corporation (based in MA) probably owns most Valvolines up and down the East coast. It's hard to find a "mom & pop" owner.

I went this route thinking I'd be dealing with "mom & pops" ... which are easy. The corporate thing is a PITA (pain in the ass).

Good to know.

No doubt those corporations saw the money potential in car maintenance and invest in mass numbers of Jiffy Lubes.

Keep digging MS. You'll find that one person you need to talk to.


Kind of similar to bloggers that have 1000 blogs and each one makes at least one dollar, each and every day.

BOOM !

,,, they're making $1000 plus a day.
