CHARLOTTE, N.C., Nov. 01, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (NASDAQ: DRVN) is proud to announce the acquisition of its 100th car wash since entering the business in August 2020.

Driven Brands most recently acquired Magic Tunnel Car Wash, which operates 16 sites across Ohio, West Virginia, and Georgia. Magic Tunnel has a strong wash club subscriber base, aligning with Driven Brands’ overall customer data strategy.
