About Econo Lube N' Tune

Econo Lube N' Tune & Brake's "turn-key" process is as simple as it sounds. If you are approved for a franchise and successfully complete the intensive initial training program - you'll simply "turn-the-key" and step into a fully staffed, equipped and operationally ready Econo Lube N' Tune & Brakes automotive service center, though we also provide you a credit which you can use to make additional cosmetic improvements. Econo Lube N' Tune & Brakes has existing centers as well as new locations available for franchising. Currently the Company is focusing on expansion in Arizona, Colorado, and Dallas (9/1/04) Econo Lube N' Tune & Brakes approaches the franchise process with a different philosophy than most other franchise companies. At Econo Lube N' Tune & Brakes we won't ask a potential franchise owner to invest or participate in developing a location until the company itself has made a substantial investment in time, energy, professional services and money. Before a prospective franchise owner is asked to commit to an Econo Lube N' Tune & Brakes location, the Company has: * Identified the marketplace * Selected a site * Purchased the property * Planned, designed and constructed the building * In most cases, acquired and installed all furniture, fixtures, equipment and signage * Fully stocked the location with all oil change, tune-up and brake parts needed * Hired and trained a staff to operate the location * Trained the new franchise owner Anyone who has ever opened their own business and has had to accomplish all of these goals on their own can truly relate, and appreciate the "turn-key" process we offer here at Econo Lube N' Tune & Brakes.
