Sun Auto Tire Expands in Alabama

Sun Auto Tire & Service Inc. recently finalized two acquisitions in Alabama, increasing its presence in that state by four locations.

The acquisition of Bay City Tire & Wheel "builds on the Sun Auto Network’s growing Gulf Coast presence, expanding service coverage across Alabama," say Sun Auto Tire & Service officials.

"Together with Fausak Tires, Vannoy’s Tires and T&A Auto Care, it further strengthens the (Sun Auto) Network, bringing these companies together under one connected platform as we continue to grow nationwide. Known for fast, friendly service and a strong reputation for trust and reliability, Bay City Tire & Wheel has earned the confidence of drivers in its market."

Sun Auto Tire & Service's purchase of Black’s Tire & Auto Save, a dealership with three locations across northeast and central Alabama, "extends Sun Auto’s reach into new communities across the state. Together, the additions broaden service coverage in Alabama while strengthening the company’s ability to support drivers throughout the Southeast."

All four Black's Tire & Auto Save and Bay City Tire & Wheel locations "will operate as part of the Sun Auto Network, with access to shared systems, training and operational resources designed to support long-term performance while preserving the trusted, neighborhood-focused service each store is known for."

With more than 550 locations, Mesa, Ariz.-based Sun Auto Tire & Service Inc. is one of the largest tire dealerships in the U.S., according to the MTD 100.
