Brand Story
Our founder, Justin Strickland, began his career in the automotive space as a minimum wage hood technician. After a year in this position, he went to the owner of the franchise and asked if any management opportunities could be in his future? The owner responded, "I think you are doing well where you are." Justin left that job and worked his way up to a District Sales and Operations Manager for another quick oil change competitor. He began to notice similarities in the two companies. There were several gaps that could be bridged. Justin put together a strong business plan to start his own concept at the end of 2021 and presented to multiple investors and banks - all of which said no due to only having around $6,000 to start the business. Justin's grandfater mortgaged the family home for his grandson to chase his dream. The first quick lube concept under Justin's ownership was born. The Strickland Brothers business is named after Justin's two sons, Tate & Beckett.
