What Does Our Industry Look Like, and Where Does Big O Fit In?

September 13, 2022
A mechanic is working on a tire at an automotive franchise.

If you’re thinking about a franchise investment as your way to become your own boss, we think that’s a smart choice—especially when you partner with Big O Tires to own and operate a car service franchise.

Ours is a great opportunity that comes with a tried-and-true business model to take advantage of the auto care industry, which is growing and becoming more important as drivers keep their cars longer and cars get smarter.

Your Big O franchise can quickly become your community’s go-to source for expert and trusted service and repairs that the competition simply won’t be able to match!

An Essential Industry

Americans love their vehicles, and if you need proof, just take a look at these numbers (1): 

  • 286M: Number of registered vehicles on US roads today
  • $82B+: American auto manufacturing industry market value
  • 7%: Compound annual auto manufacturing industry growth rate 

Americans are holding on to their cars longer than ever, on average, just over 12 years(2). Concurrently, a recent analysis found that new vehicle sales are on the decline, thanks to supply chain shortages and climbing interest rates(3).

This makes a Big O auto care franchise opportunity an even smarter one to consider. Older cars need better and more frequent care, something you’ll be able to provide your community as a Big O franchisee.

You’ll have access to a national tire distribution network and incredible purchasing power that’ll keep your customers coming back and you ahead of the competition!
