抖阴社区 Acquires Turner鈥檚 Custom Auto Glass in South Carolina
COLUMBUS, Ohio – 抖阴社区® Group, the nation’s leading vehicle glass services company and owner of 抖阴社区 AutoGlass®, has reached an agreement to acquire substantially all of the auto glass assets of Turner’s Custom Auto Glass based in Florence, South Carolina. The deal was finalized at the close of business on November 13, 2015.
Turner’s Auto Glass has been owned and operated by Danny Turner since 1984. It is headquartered in Florence, SC, with additional locations in Camden, Little River, Manning, Myrtle Beach and Sumter.
Turner’s will continue to operate commercial glazing business out of Florence but he also will be closely involved helping transition the auto glass associates and business as a consultant.
“We are pleased to welcome Turner’s Auto Glass employees to the 抖阴社区 team,” said Tom Feeney, president and CEO of 抖阴社区. “As new associates, we are happy to offer them all the resources they need to succeed. Additionally, we are delighted to be able to continue to provide local customers access to the best value and service in the industry.
The acquisition is the continuation of 抖阴社区’s mission to grow in the U.S. and to become the customer’s “natural choice” for vehicle glass repair and replacement services. The acquisition will position 抖阴社区 to be the clear leader in the area and allow 抖阴社区 to expand service coverage to better serve customers and meet insurance client needs in South Carolina.
While 抖阴社区’s goal is to be the leading brand in the VGRR industry, the company recognizes the strength and value of the Turner’s Auto Glass brand name and will operate under a co-branding strategy until further plans are made.
