LONG-TIME EMPLOYEE PURCHASES JIFFY LUBE SERVICE CENTER IN SALISBURY

HOUSTON, TX – Jiffy Lube® International, the company that pioneered the fast oil change industry, announces that long-time Jiffy Lube employee, Chris Ryan, along with his wife, Laura, are shifting gears to own and operate the existing Jiffy Lube service center located at 900 S.

"My wife and I are grateful for this opportunity to continue serving Salisbury residents,” said Chris Ryan, Jiffy Lube franchisee. “As part of the Jiffy Lube family, we pride ourselves on providing quality automotive maintenance services to our customers and are grateful for the community’s incredible support over the years.”
Chris has been a part of the Jiffy Lube family for 13 years, serving as store manager of the Salisbury location for the past 12 years. Under his management, the Salisbury Jiffy Lube service center has consistently performed in the top 10 percent of customer satisfaction surveys. The store also earned top honors as the regional finalist in the 2012 J-Team All Stars, an internal competition that encourages teamwork, technical knowledge, operational execution and delivery of an outstanding customer experience on all levels. The Ryans have been active members in the community for the past 15 years, with Laura serving as a volunteer EMT for the local fire department.

I am only been to Jiffy Lube once I believe, however, Chris deserves a big congratulations for taking the opportunity of running a business, while so many others are staying home and collecting their welfare checks each week. I also own a small business and know how hard it is and the long hours that go into keeping it running. It sounds like he and his wife understand what it takes to keep a business running and good customer service. Way to go Chris!
