About Kennedy Transmission
If you have the motivation, drive, and capabilities to operate and manage your own business, you owe it to yourself to fully investigate ownership of a Kennedy Transmission, Brake and Auto Service store.
We do not require that our franchisees possess previous transmission shop experience. Previous business experience or exposure to the automotive service business segment is highly desirable but also not required. We do require that our store owners are actively involved on a daily basis in their store �" no passive ownership is permitted.
We offer several advantages over other franchised business opportunities. Because we are a specialty business we are not open nights and weekends. Also, a mature Kennedy Transmission, Brake and Auto Service store operates on a staff of four or five, which lowers the management burden of administrative tasks such as staffing and payroll.
