Rapid expansion into high-growth markets positions the quick-lube brand for strategic acquisitions, consolidation, or broader platform opportunities.
HANOVER, Pa. - BostonChron -- Costa Oil – 10 Minute Oil Change, one of the fastest-growing quick-lube brands in the United States, announced today that it has surpassed 70 locations nationwide following the completed construction of its newest stores in San Antonio, Texas. Earlier this year, the company reached its 70th location milestone with the opening of its Reed City, Michigan store.
The continued expansion reflects Costa Oil's disciplined growth strategy and strengthening footprint in high-demand markets, while positioning the brand for its next phase of scale through strategic acquisitions, consolidation opportunities, or a broader corporate transaction.
"Our growth to 70-plus locations is the result of deliberate execution, not aggressive overextension," said Brandon Cornelius, Head of Store Development at Costa Oil – 10 Minute Oil Change. "We've focused on building stores that perform, selecting markets with durable demand, and maintaining construction and operational standards that allow us to scale efficiently. San Antonio represents exactly the type of market we believe in as we continue expanding the brand."

Founded on a streamlined, stay-in-your-car, drive-thru oil change model, Costa Oil delivers fast, transparent service without appointments. The company's exclusive focus on oil change services has produced consistent unit-level performance and operational repeatability across both corporate and franchise locations.
Looking ahead, Costa Oil's leadership sees significant opportunity to further scale the platform.
"As the quick-lube industry continues to consolidate, we believe Costa Oil is well positioned either to be an acquirer of complementary businesses or to participate in a larger strategic transaction," said Costa Kapothanasis, Founder and CEO of Costa Oil – 10 Minute Oil Change. "We've built a business with strong fundamentals, clean unit economics, and a scalable operating model. Our focus now is on thoughtful growth that maximizes long-term value for our partners, franchisees, and stakeholders."
"This has never been a vanity project for me," said Costa Kapothanasis, Founder and CEO of Costa Oil – 10 Minute Oil Change. "From day one, the focus has been building a real operating business with durable cash flow and repeatable performance. If a rebrand or broader platform creates more value for franchisees and employees, that's something we would evaluate thoughtfully."

With additional locations currently under development, Costa Oil continues to evaluate expansion opportunities across both organic growth and strategic alternatives within the highly fragmented automotive service sector.
