Mr. Clutch Franchise vs. Moran Brands: How They Compare

Considering buying a Mr Clutch franchise? Learn how it compares to opportunities from Moran Family of Brands, so you can choose the best investment.


Mr Clutch: A Reliable Auto Care Franchise

Brothers Joseph and Will Yussuf opened England's first Mr Clutch location in 1978. By specializing in clutches, brakes, and transmissions, the Mr Clutch team added 40 locations across the United Kingdom and is nationally recognized as one of the country’s leading auto service providers. It’s one of the first auto shop brands to offer fixed prices for brakes and timing belts. The brand also offers comprehensive car services, general repairs, and emissions testing at select shops. Mr Clutch has earned a solid reputation among customers for its reliable and trustworthy service. The concept prioritizes customer satisfaction and aims to provide a positive experience for drivers.


Mr Clutch began franchising 22 years ago to allow entrepreneurs to open a brand with a positive customer perception. The franchisor provides training, assistance with site selection, centralized equipment and parts purchasing, and marketing guidance. Over the next five years, Mr Clutch plans to increase the number of service locations, expand emissions testing services, and add fleet contractor accounts.

 

But, if you want to franchise with Mr. Clutch, you’ll need to go to the other side of the pond because it only has locations in the United Kingdom.
