A Valvoline Instant Oil Change operator is continuing its Rio Grande Valley expansion, reaching 50 service centers with the opening of its latest location in Edinburg.
Velocity Auto Care opened the new center at 2930 W. Trenton Road, according to an Aug. 5 announcement from Franchise Equity Partners, the private investment firm that backs the franchise operator.
The Edinburg location is the 12th service center Velocity has opened since Franchise Equity Partners partnered with the company to acquire 38 Valvoline Instant Oil Change franchise locations from Valvoline in December 2024.
That deal included an agreement to develop another 75 service centers over seven years, setting the stage for a broader expansion across Texas.
