Christian Brothers opened 24 new shops last year, more to come in 2026

Agreements in Las Vegas and Reno will introduce the brand to Nevada as CBA also prioritizes developments in several key territories throughout the U.S.

Houston—Throughout 2025, Christian Brothers Automotive (CBA) opened 24 new shops, including 14 in new markets such as Odessa, Texas, Clarksville, Tenn., Marietta, Ga., Hayden, Idaho, and Otsego, Minn. It also executed 52 letters of intent to support future expansion.

Of the 24 new locations opened, 15 were developed by first-time franchisees to the system, while 17 existing markets transitioned to new ownership. Notable agreements in Las Vegas and Reno will introduce the brand to Nevada as its 32nd state once opened.

Looking ahead to 2026, CBA is prioritizing development in several territories, including New Berlin, Wis., Mechanicsville, Va., Derby, Kan., Shoreview, Minn., Blaine, Minn., Winterville, N.C., and Rincon, Ga., with the continued mission to expand into existing and new markets as well as into its 31st state when the Cheyenne, Wyo., location opens this summer.

Beyond development, 2025 marked a strong year for industry recognition and internal investment. CBA ranked No. 74 on Entrepreneur’s 2025 Top Franchises for Veterans list and No. 92 on Franchise Times’ Top 400.

CBA ranked No. 1 in customer satisfaction among Aftermarket Full-Service Maintenance and Repair Providers by J.D. Power for the sixth time in a row, remaining the only aftermarket automotive repair brand to top the category since its inception.

The brand also announced a $12 million Technology & Training Center in Katy, Texas, set to open in early 2027.
