Cooks Collision Centers Acquires Four Sacramento Stores

Acquisition of Hayes Brothers Collision Repair brings total number of Cooks locations to 33.

Cooks Collision Centers, a Roseville, Calif.-based collision repair company, has acquired four locations in the greater Sacramento area from Hayes Brothers Collision Repair.

The Hayes transaction is one of five acquisitions in the past 12 months that have added locations to Napa, the Peninsula and the South Bay area. An additional location is scheduled to close at the end of this month. With this latest acquisition, Cooks now operates 33 locations and is the largest independently owned and operated collision company in California, and the largest family-owned repairer in the country.

“We are closing the year with several prime acquisitions that complement our growth strategy,” said Don Wood, who owns Cooks with his brother, Rick Wood. “We have built a solid infrastructure for continued growth in 2014 and beyond.”

Added Brett Hayes, co-owner of Hayes Brothers Collision Repair, "Part of our legacy is that we are a family-owned business. It gives us comfort to know that Cooks Collision, another family-owned business, will take good care of our employees and customers.”

Symphony Advisors LLC and Veritas Advisors Inc. acted as advisers to Cooks Collision throughout the acquisition process.
