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.
