GreatWater 360 Auto Care Acquires Andy's Tire & Auto Service

GreatWater 360 Auto Care has acquired Andy’s Tire & Auto Service in Alton, Illinois, expanding its footprint to 153 locations throughout the Midwest and Texas, and 47 locations in Illinois.

Founded in 1974, Andy’s Tire & Auto Service has built a long-standing reputation in the Alton community for full-service automotive repair, tire expertise, and customer-focused service. The shop will continue operating under its existing name with its current team in place.

“The addition of Andy’s not only brings a valued location to our network but also aligns with our recent focused expansion into the southern Illinois and greater St. Louis market,” said Scott Anderson, President & COO of GreatWater 360 Auto Care. “We’re excited to support the team as they continue to grow and serve the Alton community.”

Concentrating on markets where it already has a foundation, GreatWater continues to build density while supporting local teams with the tools, training, and operational resources needed for long-term success. 

“This acquisition reflects GreatWater’s disciplined approach to growth—partnering with legacy shops that align with our core values,” added Anderson. “Supporting the Andy’s team as they continue delivering high-quality, community-focused service is a natural fit with our teammate-first approach.” 

GreatWater continues to expand across the Midwest and Texas by partnering with independent repair shops that share its passion for quality workmanship, transparency, and long-term customer trust. Providing legacy owners with both a practical and personal path to transition their business has become a core strength with the GreatWater brand.
