Franchise Cottman Transmission and Total Auto Care

In 1962, Richard Silva opened the first Cottman Transmission center, located in northeast Philadelphia, PA, and named his store after Cottman Avenue, located nearby. In 1964, Silva sold his first franchise and began the Cottman Transmission franchise name.

 From their humble beginnings, Cottman Transmission evolved over the next 50+ years, along with the aftermarket industry itself, to include Total Auto Care across its franchise network, welcomed the new and improved Cottman Man and Transmission Physician characters and had Randy Wright step in as president of Cottman in 2011. Cottman Transmission and Total Auto Care look forward to blazing into the future of what the automotive aftermarket hold for them.

Being your own boss at Cottman means you don’t have to go at it alone. From the moment you become a business owner at Cottman, you’re part of our family. We will hand you a well-oiled business model – with the support of a nationwide team, an established system for success and peers who are just as committed to your success as you are. There has never been a better time to roll into the Cottman family, and benefit from decades of experience and a trusted reputation for quality total auto care.
