O2 Investment Partners (www.o2investment.com) is pleased to announce that Straightaway Tire & Auto (www.gostraightaway.com), a leading independent, full-service aftermarket automotive repair and service platform, has completed the acquisitions of Maple Grove Auto Service and Warzecha Auto Works. Terms of the transactions were not disclosed.

Maple Grove is a full-service auto repair facility that has been serving the Maple Grove, MN market for over 4 decades, and Warzecha is a full-service auto repair facility that has been serving the Zimmerman, MN market for over 25 years.
