Group 1 Automotive Rebrands Saco Collision Center

The rebranding effort does not signal a shift in ownership or capability. The Saco facility, located at 751 Portland Rd., continues to provide body work and paint services for customers across the state. By adopting the Group 1 name, the site aims to provide a more consistent experience for drivers who visit any of the company’s regional dealerships, rather than serving only those who purchased vehicles at the neighboring Saco stores.

General Manager Dennis Steeves noted that the facility remains committed to local relationships, acting as a standalone hub for the entire Maine customer base. Since Group 1 Automotive acquired the location in November 2021, it has functioned as part of a larger portfolio that now encompasses 32 collision centers and 251 dealerships across the United States and the United Kingdom.
