    Virginia Tire & Auto’s new store is a 12-bay greenfield construction in The Shops at Russell Branch in southeast Leesburg, in a developing area of the city of 53,000 residents. 

    LEESBURG, Va. — Virginia Tire & Auto has opened a retail store in Leesburg, its first in that city and 18th overall throughout Virginia.

    The new store is a greenfield construction in The Shops at Russell Branch in southeast Leesburg, in a developing area of the city of 53,000 residents.

    The 12-bay facility features state-of-the-art equipment, a comfortable waiting area, complimentary refreshments, free Wi-Fi and a kids' play area, Virginia Tire said, without disclosing its investment in the store. The Fairfax, Va.-based dealership broke ground on the store in August 2020.

    Virginia Tire has been providing car care in nearby Ashburn, Va., for more than 25 years and has been receiving requests to open a store in Leesburg for years, Julie Holmes, Co-CEO of Virginia Tire & Auto, said.

    "We are excited to offer a new, more convenient location for our Leesburg customers," she said.

    "As we look to hire new staff for this and all our locations, we hope to attract more women to the auto care business. We feel there is a great opportunity to have more women join our great team."

    Kenny Fesperman, a Virginia Tire employee since 2000 and most recently store manager at the Ashburn store, will manage the Leesburg location.

    With 18 stores, Virginia Tire is considered to be among the 60 largest retail dealerships in North America, according to Tire Business research.

    To celebrate the store opening, Virginia Tire of Leesburg is offering $20 off oil changes through July 31.
