Victory Tire & Auto Acquires 24th Store in Minnesota

Victory Tire & Auto recently announced the acquisition of Babcock Auto Care in Rochester, Minnesota, in a press release.

Jeremy Babcock—a veteran of the automotive industry with over 30 years of experience—and his wife, Jeanna Babcock, opened their first shop in Rochester in 2002.

“From our very first conversation with Victory, it was clear that their values aligned closely with our own,” said Jeremy Babcock. “Their integrity, family values, and genuine care for people resonated deeply with us. We’re proud to pass the baton to a team we can trust to carry forward the legacy we’ve built.”

The acquisition marks Victory’s 24th shop in the state.

“We couldn’t be more honored to welcome the Babcock team into the Victory family,” said Jeff Matt, brand president of Victory Tire & Auto. “Jeremy and Jeanna have built something truly special, rooted in care, craftsmanship, and community. Together, we’re excited to carry that forward, continuing to serve Rochester with the same heart and excellence customers have come to trust.”
