Sun Auto Network Expands in the Midwest

Sun Auto Network has announced significant growth in the Midwest with the inauguration of a new Plaza Tire Service in Owensboro, Kentucky, and the acquisition of two Checkpoint Tire Service locations in Illinois. This expansion is a part of Sun Auto's strategy to enhance its service offerings in regions where it operates, underscoring its commitment to providing reliable automotive care.

New Store in Kentucky

The newly opened Plaza Tire Service in Owensboro marks the company's 89th store and the 8th location in Kentucky. This new facility aims to provide local drivers with essential automotive services, including tire replacements and various maintenance tasks. The team at the Owensboro location is trained to deliver top-notch customer service, which is integral to Sun Auto's overall mission in the automotive industry.

Owensboro residents can now enjoy improved access to trusted automotive care. The new store's contributions include both convenience and quality service, setting a new standard for customer experience in the area.

Strengthening Illinois Footprint

In addition to the Kentucky opening, Sun Auto has also strengthened its presence in Illinois with the acquisition of two existing Checkpoint Tire Service centers. These additions not only increase Sun Auto's total locations in Illinois to 15 but also introduce Checkpoint Express Lube Centers, which provide quick oil change and maintenance services. This expansion reflects the company’s focus on enhancing service options and accessibility for its customers.

Rob Kingery, Regional Vice President, emphasized, "Growth is focused on strengthening the markets we already serve and improving access to dependable automotive care." With the new locations, Sun Auto Network aims to offer greater convenience and increased service capabilities to the communities it supports.
