Demand for Subaru has never been greater and Brunswick Subaru is ready to meet that demand by making room for more inventory at its brand new Brunswick Auto Mart facility that opened April 6, 2016. Subaru America has been setting sales records month after month since 2012. Part of that success is due to the phenomenal sales at Brunswick Subaru, the top selling Subaru dealership in Northeast Ohio.

Geoff Panteck, vice president of Brunswick Auto Mart, points out that the old Subaru dealership had outgrown its current space. “We needed to a build a dealership with more space for cars and greater service capacity for our customers,” Panteck says. Why the demand for Subaru? “Subaru’s hold their value longer due to the durability of the brand,” according to Panteck. “We needed a facility large enough to house both new and certified Subaru’s because there is just such a large primary and second hand market for these cars.”

The new facility, located at 3015 Center Road in Brunswick, has 36,632 square feet of space that includes a state-of-the-art showroom, expanded service area with 16 bays (including one built exclusively for low profile sports cars!), super-comfortable customer waiting room and workspaces, offices, and a huge outdoor car lot. It is over three times the size of its old dealership!

Brunswick Subaru worked with a local architect on the project to give the site a local flair and make it more harmonious with the surrounding area. “We did not want that standard corporate look,” Pantek says. “We wanted to build something that our customers could relate to and that will appeal to both our customers and employees functionally and aesthetically.”

Brunswick Subaru cares in other ways about the community as well and has chosen to inaugurate the new dealership with a charitable contribution to Medina County. This year they are going to be donating $45,830 to “Feeding Medina County”, an organization that helps families at risk of going hungry. “We always try to do our part and give back to the neighboring communities that have supported Brunswick Auto Mart all these years and we hope that this will continue for years to come.” says Panteck.
