April 22, 2021—Costa Oil International announced its first franchise location in Katy, Texas.
A press release from developer FranCoDev said the franchise award is the start of a nationwide franchise plan. Company founder Costa Kapothanasis announced the franchise move in a video interview with NOLN in February. He said they're focused on new builds for low-overhead quick lube service shops.
"We're putting together a model that really closely aligns with the original quick lube model," he said during the interview. "We don't think it should cost a million dollars to build a quick lube."
