Pike Road, AL—Joe Hudson’s Collision Center, a leading player in the multi-site collision repair industry, is excited to share its latest expansion into West Virginia through the acquisition of Geer Brothers Body Shop locations in Barboursville and Huntington. This development brings the total number of states where Joe Hudson’s operates to 18, reinforcing the company’s dedication to entering new markets while also enhancing its presence in existing ones.
“The acquisition of both Geer Brothers Body Shop locations represents another milestone in our commitment to expanding into strategically aligned markets,” said Brant Wilson, CEO of Joe Hudson’s Collision Center. “As we mark our entry into West Virginia—the 18th state in our growing network—we recognize the importance of establishing a strong presence in adjacent markets. The locations in Barboursville and Huntington are well-respected within their communities, distinguished by their longstanding dedication to the tri-state area. We look forward to honoring the legacy of Geer Brothers by delivering outstanding service and high-quality repairs to these dynamic communities.”
“This expansion not only enhances our presence but also underscores our commitment to providing exceptional collision repair services across all our locations,” said Cameron Dickson, COO of Joe Hudson’s. “A key aspect of our acquisition process is ensuring that potential partners are known for quality repairs and outstanding customer service. Geer Brothers has exemplified these values for decades. Our dedicated integration team is poised to seamlessly incorporate both shops, offering the support and training needed for a smooth transition. We are thrilled to enter West Virginia with these two exemplary locations.”
Wendy Patrick, Chief Administrative Officer of Joe Hudson’s Collision Center, emphasized the importance of retaining the technical and operational staff at Geer Brothers Auto Body. “Our goal is to keep these talented technicians who are both I-CAR trained and ASE-certified. Their expertise is essential for delivering the high-quality repairs and customer service we pride ourselves on. Additionally, the knowledgeable and experienced front-end employees are vital to the success of these locations. As we expand into West Virginia and integrate new facilities, ensuring we retain these key team members is critical to maintaining our standards and supporting our customers effectively.”
