About AutoNation
Fortune 500 Automotive Retailer & Regional Destination Anchor AutoNation is America's largest automotive retailer, operating over 300 new vehicle franchises and collision centers. As a dominant Anchor Tenant for auto malls and regional commercial districts, they require significant acreage for inventory storage and showroom display. Their real estate strategy focuses on high-volume highway frontage sites with regional draw. Currently, the brand is prioritizing portfolio optimization and strategic acquisitions to deepen density in key markets, often seeking Build-to-Suit or purchase opportunities for large-format dealerships and standalone collision centers that support their "AutoNation USA" used-car expansion.
