Mavis Discount Tire

Mavis Discount Tire is a national automotive service provider specializing in tire sales, installation, and a wide range of vehicle maintenance services. The company began in 1972, building on the legacy of Vic’s Cycle Shop, which was established in 1949. From its origins as a single shop in New York, Mavis has grown into one of the largest independent tire and vehicle service chains in North America. Today, it operates under the parent company Mavis Tire Express Services Corp., headquartered in White Plains, New York.

A defining moment in Mavis’s history was its merger with Express Oil Change & Tire Engineers, which expanded both its geographic reach and the breadth of its services. As of October 2025, Mavis and its affiliated brands manage more than 3,500 owned and franchised locations across the United States and Canada. This footprint covers the East Coast, South, Midwest, and select Western markets, with stores found in both urban and suburban settings.

Over the past five years, Mavis has accelerated its growth by opening new stores and acquiring established brands. Since 2024, the company has added 86 locations and created nearly 700 jobs, demonstrating a commitment to expanding in high-traffic corridors and underserved areas. Its portfolio now includes several recognized names such as Mavis Discount Tire, Mavis Tires & Brakes, Midas, Express Oil Change & Tire Engineers, Brakes Plus, Tire Kingdom, NTB, Town Fair Tire, and Tuffy. This multi-brand approach allows Mavis to serve millions of customers each year, offering services that range from tire replacement and brake repair to oil changes and battery installation.

Mavis’s expansion strategy blends organic growth with strategic acquisitions, supporting a steady increase in store count and market presence. The company invests in workforce development and partners with technical schools to train automotive technicians, ensuring a reliable pipeline of skilled employees. For landlords, brokers, and developers, Mavis stands out for its scale, brand recognition, and flexible store formats, which help drive consistent customer traffic and support long-term occupancy across diverse retail environments.
