Lube X-press Celebrates Back-to-Back Store Openings as it Expands in Southwest
El Paso-based Lube X-press recently opened two new locations within the span of a month, according to a recent press release.
Having opened at least two new locations each year since 2017, Lube X-press opened its 12th and 13th stores within 30 days of each other this summer.
“We’re focused on development opportunities in the Southwest and expect to reach name-brand status in the next few years,” said Lube X-press co-founder Karlos Lazo. “We powered through the pandemic and continued to grow during that challenging time. The fact that we’ve thrived over the past five years proves that our drive-thru concept and commitment to providing world-class service is a winning strategy."
The brand's El Paso team already has plans for its 14th location, and the real estate arm is focusing on further development opportunities in the Southwest, in states including Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas.
“We pushed our limits and tested our ability to perform at the level of a national retailer. This took significant planning, organization, and grit, but our corporate team rose to the challenge, executing back-to-back grand openings,” said Lube X-press Co-Founder Justin Lazo. “Our development partners at Banes General Contractors were instrumental in ensuring we met our strict deadlines and opened the bay doors right on schedule.”
Lazo Holdings, LLC, which is the parent company of Lube X-press, has also been recognized on the Inc. 5000 list.
