Andrew shares his journey from his first payroll job at Graeter’s Ice Cream to following in his dad’s footsteps in the car care industry and eventually taking over the family business.

When Andrew’s dad received a great job offer, he passed the torch to Andrew. While the business wasn’t exactly a money-making machine at the time, Andrew embraced the challenge. Through word-of-mouth referrals, strong relationships built in BNI, and active involvement with local chambers, he’s grown Bear Car Care into a trusted name with a loyal clientele.
