Background

A History of Quality: Mac Tools

Mac Tools has been crafting top-notch hand tools since 1938, starting as the Mechanics Tool and Forge Company. They expanded over the years, becoming Mac Tools in 1961, and eventually joining the Stanley Black & Decker family in 1980. Mac Tools started offering franchises in 2011, now boasting over 1,000 locations worldwide, with over 700 in the United States. Their extensive product line includes a wide array of tools, from power tools and tool storage to shop equipment and diagnostics. Mac Tools offers over 8,000 unique tools.

Why Consider a Mac Tools Franchise?

A Mac Tools franchise owner is a hard worker with a strong commitment to customer service. While experience in automotive tools isn't required, excellent people skills are essential, as you'll spend significant time interacting with customers. Mac Tools is known for its dedication to quality and exceptional customer service. They have a robust network of distributors and franchisees across North America, making their brand familiar and respected throughout the automotive industry. Mac Tools has consistently been recognized in Entrepreneur's Franchise 500 for over a decade, showcasing their strength in areas like cost, growth, franchisee support, and financial stability.

What Makes a Mac Tools Franchise a Great Choice?

As a Mac Tools franchise owner, you'll represent a company with a strong reputation. Mac Tools expects their franchise owners to uphold this commitment. To join the Mac Tools team, you'll need to be prepared for an initial investment, including a franchise fee and startup costs. There are also ongoing fees, like potential renewal fees. You'll need to meet the company's financial requirements regarding net worth and liquid capital.

How to Open a Mac Tools Franchise

After applying, Mac Tools may contact you to discuss your application and schedule a meeting with a franchise representative. They'll often arrange a "discovery day" where you can shadow a distributor and see their daily routine. This is a great opportunity to ask questions. If you decide to proceed, a franchise representative will help you set up your business and find a suitable truck. You'll also have a week of training with an existing franchisee. Mac Tools offers continuous support, including a district manager who will spend at least 10 days with you on your route, providing sales and business training. As a franchisee, you'll have access to specialized software for managing accounts, inventory, and more. Additionally, dedicated customer and technical service teams are always available to assist you.
