Take 5 Oil Change has opened its 1000th store location, according to a news release.
The recent opening is located in Fort Pierce, Florida, and is operated by franchisee Purple Square Group.
To celebrate the milestone, the store held a 1000th grand opening celebration, where Take 5 sponsor and oil supplier RelaDyne provided a sprint car exhibition and a meet and greet with sprint car driver Logan Schuchart; and Mobil 1, which put on a NASCAR vehicle display and a racing simulator for attendees to interact with.
In addition, a $5,000 donation was made by Take 5 to local nonprofit GraceWay Village, an organization providing support to Fort Pierce residents struggling with poverty, food scarcity, homelessness, and other basic needs.
Having just opened its 300th franchise location this past year, the Take 5 brand has grown by more than 1400% since it was first acquired by Driven Brands in 2016.
“This is a major milestone for our brand, which started with humble beginnings as a local oil change shop in New Orleans back in the 1980s,” said Mo Khalid, EVP and group president of maintenance at Driven Brands. “Since acquiring Take 5 Oil Change with just 50 locations, we have seen tremendous growth and have more in the pipeline to look forward to.”
