Why Tunex Automotive Specialists?
Tunex is the most experienced franchise operation in this specialized segment of the automotive
aftermarket business. Though there are larger "tune-up", preventative maintenance and car-care
chains and franchises throughout the United States, none are as
specialized in their operating system and perform the services as
extensively and as expertly as Tunex.
The primary objective of the Company is to establish a position as the most prominent automotive engine performance specialty service business in the country.
