The transaction marks CollisionRight's 23rd Michigan location and its first in the Upper Peninsula.
Marquette, MI – September 3, 2026 – Focus Advisors, the leading M&A firm in collision repair with deep expertise across the automotive aftermarket, announced it was the exclusive advisor to Superior Collision, one of the largest independently owned collision repair shops in the Upper Peninsula — a single-location collision repair business serving the Marquette area with both collision and calibration services.
Founded in 2002 and operated by co-owners Christy and Brad Miller, Superior Collision has been one of the Upper Peninsula's leading collision repairers for more than two decades. From its facility on West Baraga Avenue in Marquette, the shop built its position on insurer relationships and a technician team developed from the ground up, consistently recognized for its quality repairs well beyond the city.
The transaction reflects sustained demand from national consolidators for well-run collision repair businesses that hold leading positions in their local market. It also underscores how deliberate CollisionRight has been in Michigan; the company has been acquiring in the state since 2021, and Michigan is now CollisionRight's largest market outside its home state of Ohio. Superior Collision is the company's 23rd location in Michigan among approximately 130 locations nationwide, placing CollisionRight second in the state.
"Selling a business is a complicated and difficult process. The Focus Advisors team made the difference — they knew which buyers were serious, advocated for us, and helped me navigate a process that is complicated and difficult," said Christy Miller, co-owner of Superior Collision. "Just as importantly, CollisionRight gave us confidence that our people would be taken care of. By the end, our employees were as excited about the partnership as we were."
"Superior Collision is the Marquette shop people have trusted for more than twenty years, and that kind of market standing is impossible for any buyer to replicate," said Chris Lane, President and Managing Partner of Focus Advisors, who led the transaction. "Marquette extends CollisionRight into a part of the state consolidators have barely touched, and it gives Christy and Brad a partner who intends to invest there."
