Chicago, Illinois -- October 8, 2015 -- The Boyd Group Inc. (the "Boyd Group" or "Boyd") today announced the acquisition on October 6 and opening on October 7, 2015 of two collision repair centers in Dayton, Ohio. Both locations previously operated as Wayside Collision Centers.
"These well-established locations will increase our presence in Ohio, introduce the Gerber brand to new customers and better serve our insurance partners in the region," said Tim O'Day, President and COO of the Boyd Group's U.S. operations. "They also demonstrate that we are on our way to achieving our annual growth target of 6 to 10 percent through single-store additions."
"We are also proud to acquire these locations which have served Dayton since 1967," Mr. O'Day added. "We are honored to carry on that legacy while providing the high quality service we are known for at all of our Gerber repair centers."
The Boyd Group is continuously looking to add new collision repair locations to its existing network in Canada and the U.S. Interested collision repair center owners are asked to contact Kim Allen at the contact coordinates below for more information.
