Lantana Car Wash opened in 2019 and is known as a premium quality car wash, utilizing ceramic-infused technology, providing added UV protection and a superior gloss finish. Lantana enjoyed a 4.5 rating by customer reviews.
“My team and I worked hard to build a car wash that delivers the best results and highest customer satisfaction, and I am glad to see that Driven Brands Car Wash will build upon that success,” said Steve Oram, former owner of Lantana Car Wash. “They were great to work with and I wish them well.”
