The auto mechanics industry in the US has a market size of $80.5 billion. In 2023, the market is forecasted to grow by 2.7% (Source: IBISWorld). This recession-resistant industry continues to see significant annual growth thanks to the constant need for auto repair services. Regardless of the state of the economy, people will always need to keep their vehicles running.
There are many benefits to investing in our repair shop franchise in Omaha, and we have the experience and know-how to set franchisees up for success.
90% of our franchisees have never worked in the automotive industry, so you don’t need to know cars to be successful. Their perspectives have allowed us to see the auto industry from the inside out and provide extraordinary guest service.
We prioritize and share our core values. We’ll discuss what it takes to run a Christian Brothers Automotive shop, from basic questions to high-level business and financials.
Our franchise support team and training programs transform franchisees into auto repair franchise champions. We’ll provide materials and technical training with a focus on guest communication. CBA also helps with hiring, recruitment, and ongoing support throughout the life of your business.
At Christian Brothers Automotive, it’s far more important for franchisee candidates to align with our values over possessing industry experience.
Some values we look for prospective owners to embody include:
The Christian Brothers Automotive franchise is proud to stand out in the crowded auto service industry. Our trusted employees aim to do business differently, in the best way possible.
Our mindfulness for those that work with us also applies to our franchisees' employees. Because our Nice Difference services make it easier for car owners to drop off their cars during the week, our franchisees can close their shops on Saturdays and Sundays, giving their employees the critical time they need to spend with their families and engage in other pursuits beyond their commitment to Christian Brothers Automotive.
Christian Brothers Automotive is all about exceptional and trustworthy service for our guests and franchisees.
We’re happy to help you find out if an auto repair franchise is right for you.
