About Christian Brothers Automotive Bradenton

Your Trusted Bradenton Auto Repair and Service Partner

My name is Brad Copland, and I am the owner of Christian Brothers Automotive- Bradenton. Although I am new to the automotive repair industry, I am not new to the world of business, customer service, and people management. I have about 30 years of finance and accounting experience in large multi-national organizations across the food, beverage, and energy industries. My wife, Charisse, was educated as a geodetic engineer and is currently serving as a homemaker. I have an adult son that lives in Georgia and adult daughter that lives in Alabama.

I pursued a Christian Brothers Automotive franchise because I respected and supported the company’s values and focus on faith. In addition, while other concepts talk about partnership, Christian Brothers Automotive demonstrates a significant commitment to partnership through site selection, capital investment, training, marketing, and ongoing support. In terms of longevity and community impact, Christian Brothers Automotive has a proven record of success with no closed locations and a history of community engagement.

As a consumer, I have experienced many of the challenges and frustrations associated with automotive repair facilities. My objective is to create differentiated customer experience by focusing on honesty, transparency, excellence, service, and value creation. To support this goal, Christian Brothers Automotive- Bradenton's facility includes a nine-bay shop outfitted with the latest equipment and programming tools; an experienced team of professional technicians and staff; a comfortable waiting room with complimentary beverages and Wi-Fi; a complimentary shuttle service; and a 3 year or 36,000-mile warranty (whichever is more advantageous to the customer). Furthermore, I will be onsite to help ensure the team stays focused on providing ethical and excellent repair work as well as outstanding customer service.
