After a generation of collision repair service, Grand Sport Auto Body’s reputation for quality in Chester County will hoist the fast-growing Service King Collision Repair Center chain to new heights in the Philadelphia market.
Service King officially acquired the local business on Jan. 2, and its eight area locations effectively triple Service King’s Philly presence to 12 locations.
“Founder and current owner Fred Gunther has built a great business centered around his very talented team, and we plan to use this foundation as a platform for our continued expansion throughout the Northeast,” Regional Vice President Jerod Guerin said in a press announcement.
That team now joins the 220-location-strong Service King contingent.
“I feel confident in Service King’s core values, their ethical presence in the industry and their commitment to their teammates and customers, which made this a perfect fit,” Gunther said.
