The new Valvoline on Mount Vernon Avenue joins a "sister property" located on Duke Street in Alexandria.
Headquartered in Lexington, Ky., the national chain began in 1866, when Dr. John Ellis developed the world's first petroleum-based lubricant, naming it "Valvoline" in 1868 and securing the first U.S. lubricant trademark in 1873.
A pioneer in the automotive age, Valvoline was quickly adopted for early vehicles like the Ford Model T, leading to innovations such as All-Climate Motor Oil and the popular VR1 Racing Oil.
Over the decades, Valvoline continued to evolve, introducing specialized products like MaxLife high-mileage oil, expanding its service footprint, and in 2023, splitting into two distinct entities: Valvoline Global Operations (acquired by Aramco) and Valvoline Retail Services (Valvoline Instant Oil Change), both maintaining the brand's legacy of lubricant innovation and service.
Jiffy Lube is considered the company's biggest competitor and has two locations in Alexandria.
