About This Business
The SpeeDee Story
Our first SpeeDee Oil Change opened in December 1980 in Metairie, Louisiana. Back then, automotive service stations were on the decline, but drivers’ needs for oil change service was on the rise. That’s where we came in.
SpeeDee swiftly grew into a quick lube and automotive tune-up service business and became SpeeDee Oil Change & Tune-Up to reflect these new service additions. Store numbers also multiplied as franchise opportunities opened.
By the mid-90s, SpeeDee had added complete brake service and grown to a full-service auto maintenance and repair facility.
In April 2008, the SpeeDee Oil Change & Tune-Up franchise became a subsidiary of Midas International Corporation. In 2008, Midas International Corporation and SpeeDee began a co-branding strategy that provided consumers with the three most frequent vehicle maintenance services – oil changes, brakes and tires.
