Straightaway Expands in Minneapolis

Straightaway Tire & Auto's Victory Tire & Auto brand has acquired Pod's Complete Care, its 19th location in the greater Minneapolis, Minn., market.

The acquisition also gives Victory Tire & Auto its first store in the White Bear Lake, Minn., area.

"The newly acquired location is a well-known, eight-bay shop with the potential to expand to 10 bays," say Straightaway Tire officials. "With five experienced technicians and two service writers on staff, Victory plans to provide additional resources to support operational growth and continue delivering top-tier customer service."

"Our team at Victory Tire & Auto is very excited to welcome in the great staff from Pod’s Complete Car Care,” said Jeff Matt, Victory Tire & Auto's president. “We were well aware of the excellent reputation this great business has maintained for decades in the White Bear Lake area and couldn’t be happier to add it to our family of locations. Our guests can expect to see several updates to the property and facility, especially to the customer waiting area.”
