Former Owner Todd Fox Reacquires Service Body Shops from Boyd Group
Todd Fox, the former Wichita, Kansas shop owner whose parents founded Service Body Shop in 1974, sold the company to Canada-based The Boyd Group in 1999. Service was Boyd’s first entry into the U.S. market and a platform acquisition into the midwestern United States.Fox stayed on with Boyd for a few years as Midwest Operations Manager, but moved out on his own in 2001 to Tulsa, Oklahoma and opened three collision repair facilities there called Fox Collision Centers, with combined sales of $8.5 million a year.
In early September, after his non-compete contract ended, Fox repurchased the stores in Wichita from Boyd, and is building a new location there, too. All the Wichita shops will bear the Fox Collision Centers name.
