Surf Thru, Inc. a Fresno, California-based company (Todd Gall, secretary) purchased its second site in the Tucson area last week. The 1.45 acre at 35 South Pantano Road, Tucson, AZ located south of the southeast corner of Broadway Boulevard and Pantano Road commanded a sale price of $600,000 ($9.50 PSF).

This will be the 8th location for Surf-Thru Express Car Wash and Tucson’s second. Gall told us last year, with the opening its first location at 3847 W River Road in Marana, that plans were to develop five locations in the Tucson area. The company’s current locations are in Fresno, Clovis and Visalia with others under construction in Southern California.

BFL Construction is the contractor and Cypress Civil Development, the Engineering firm on the Tucson projects.

Each car wash creates about 16 jobs including four or five full-time positions, Gall told us.

Surf Thru Express Car Wash uses cleaning ingredients that are environmentally friendly and mostly bio-degradable. Because Surf Thru controls the flow rate and the water pressure, it uses far less water per car than washing at home with state of the art water purification (reverse osmosis) systems in every wash that removes 99% of the minerals and impurities that otherwise leave water spots on vehicles.

Craig Finfrock of Commercial Retail Advisors, LLC in Tucson negotiated the purchase for the buyer. The seller, National Retail Properties LP, formerly known as Commercial Net Lease Realty LP of Orlando, FL was represented by Pete Villaescusa and Jesse Peron with CBRE in Tucson.

To learn more Finfrock should be contacted at 520.290.3200 and Villaescusa and Peron can be called at 520 323.5100.
