Car ADAS Solutions announced the opening of the third ADAS Calibrations of Florida location, a new state-of-the-art calibration center in Kissimmee, FL. This center, the latest in a series of expansions, is operated by collision industry veterans Mark and Bea Bruno and promises to deliver high-quality ADAS calibration services to the local community.
"My wife and I have been in the collision business our entire lives," Mark said. "After selling our previous shops to Classic Collision, we were looking for the next big opportunity. Reading about ADAS calibrations and seeing the market gap, we knew this was it."
The new Kissimmee center follows the successful launches of their first location in West Palm Beach and their second in Fort Lauderdale. "We realized there was a significant need for ADAS calibration services in Florida. Our centers aim to fill this void by offering comprehensive, manufacturer-standard calibrations," said Mark.
Kevin Caruso, COO of Car ADAS Solutions, praised the couple’s dedication and vision. "Mark and Bea’s commitment to making the roads a safer place aligns perfectly with our mission. We are thrilled to support their expansion and look forward to seeing their continued success."
The journey to opening these centers was not without its challenges.
"Finding the right location was a hurdle," Mark said. "We struggled for months until Car ADAS Solutions stepped in with their real estate expertise. Elizabeth Rutter was instrumental in securing our locations by explaining our clean and professional operation to landlords, who often have reservations about automotive businesses."
Once the new location was secured, the next challenge was staffing.
"Car ADAS Solutions provided immense support in this area. They assisted us in finding and training skilled technicians, ensuring our team was fully prepared to deliver top-notch services from day one," Mark explained. "We initially sent our technicians to training in Georgia, but now we’ve also had Chris Koepell come down to train our team on-site."
Its state-of-the-art equipment and manufacturer-specific calibration procedures reflect the center's commitment to quality and safety.
"We’re in this for the long haul. We’ve invested heavily in our facilities, from the latest diagnostic equipment to specialized calibration tools. We sleep well at night knowing we’ve put families back in their cars safely," Mark said.
"Opening our first location in West Palm Beach was a learning curve, but it set the stage for our subsequent centers," he added. "Each new opening has been smoother, thanks to the experience we’ve gained and the ongoing support from Car ADAS Solutions."
Looking ahead, Mark and Bea plan to continue expanding within Florida.
"We’re eyeing new locations in Pompano Beach, Orlando and Port St. Lucie. With each new center, we aim to extend our reach and the availability of ADAS calibration services," said Mark. "Car ADAS Solutions has been an amazing partner, providing not only technical support but also strategic guidance on market expansion."
