Building upon its California presence, LUV Car Wash announced today that it has closed on an acquisition to bring its first car wash locations throughout Sonoma County.
LUV has acquired a total of four car washes from Splash Express of Santa Rosa, LLC. Four locations are currently open with three additional car washes in development and are projected to open within the next 24 months.
“We’re thrilled to bring the LUV Car Wash platform to the Wine Country,” said LUV Car Wash Co-Founder and CEO Darren Skarecky. “With our locations in the Los Angeles and San Diego area, Sonoma is the perfect spot to continue our growth on the West Coast. We’re excited to partner with Lawrence Amaturo to grow even more fun and easy car wash experiences in the North Bay area.”
Managing Partner Lawrence Amaturo said, “After seeing LUV’s lineup of industry leaders on its executive team, it was an easy decision to partner with them to build upon what we’ve accomplished in Santa Rosa. They oversee a growing business, take great care of their people and I know they’ll do the same for ours. I’m excited to be a part of this fast-growing brand as it expands across California, and I look forward to seeing them improve upon what we’ve begun.”
This acquisition brings LUV to 54 car washes throughout Atlanta, Ft. Lauderdale, Jacksonville, Las Vegas, San Diego, Los Angeles, and Savannah, Georgia, with additional locations in the pipeline. For more information, visit LUVCarWash.com.
