August 17, 2018—The Boyd Group Inc. announced the Aug. 3, 2018 acquisition of a collision repair center in Kenosha, Wis. This center was previously operated as Jay-Bee Collision Repair Center (an operation featured in FenderBender earlier this year).
Kenosha is located in southwestern Wisconsin, about 65 miles north of Chicago and 40 miles south of Milwaukee. This new center is situated four miles from Interstate 94, the well-traveled highway that connects Wisconsin to Northern Illinois.
“We are pleased to establish a presence in Wisconsin with the acquisition of a center that has been serving its community for 73 years” said Tim O’Day, president and chief operating officer of the Boyd Group. “While our first in the state, this center will benefit from synergies with our Illinois centers located less than 35 miles south. We look forward to introducing Wisconsin’s customers and insurance providers to Gerber Collision & Glass’ trusted brand and quality service.”
