VANCOUVER, British Columbia and TORONTO, May 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Mr. Lube, Canada’s leading quick lube provider in the automotive maintenance sector, is proud to announce that it has been recognized with the prestigious designation of Platinum Club member by Canada’s Best Managed Companies in 2024.
This is the twelfth consecutive year that Mr. Lube has been selected as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies and the sixth consecutive year as a Platinum Club member!
A Best Managed Company award is the pinnacle of corporate success in Canada. It highlights companies that are focused on their core vision, creating stakeholder value, and excelling in the global economy.
“Mr. Lube is proud to be recognized as a Platinum Club member by Canada’s Best Managed Companies once again. This achievement is a testament to the collaboration and culture that we have built over the years with our staff, franchisees and supplier partners who share in this commitment to deliver service excellence to our millions of customers in Canada.
For nearly fifty years, Mr. Lube has offered Canadians a convenient alternative for routine automotive maintenance. Over this time, Mr. Lube has expanded beyond the traditional oil change model to include a full suite of maintenance services as well as tire services and sales. Today, most stores now also offer light mechanical work, such as spark plug and brake pad replacement. We are excited to see that our investments have strengthened our customer experiences and served to create more awareness for our brand and expanded service offers. In 2023, Mr. Lube achieved record-setting sales growth, franchisee profitability and customer service metrics.
As we look to the future, we will grow our national footprint of stores to offer trusted convenience to more Canadians looking to maintain their vehicles. We will continue our history of innovation to ensure our technology and programs meet the needs of the evolving automotive industry. As well, we will amplify our brand messaging to create even more awareness around our full range of services for our customers.
Our achievement as a Platinum Club member of Best Managed Companies exemplifies recognition from industry peers, business leaders, and, most importantly, the communities we serve. On behalf of Mr. Lube’s Board of Directors, our employees, our franchise owners, and our supplier partners, we are very honoured and humbled to have achieved the prestigious Platinum designation once again.”
