B & B Auto Repair: From One Family to the Next

For the past four decades, B & B Auto Repair has been providing service and repair to Olympic Peninsula customers. Founded by Brothers Nathan and Joel Baxter, giving back to the community they serve was a cornerstone of their business model. Now with retirement on the horizon for the brothers, they are passing the torch from their family business to another Kitsap County family- The Andersons.

Over a four-year period, Mieka and Jeremiah Anderson will be building their own equity in the company until they eventually become 100% vested owners in 2028. During this timeframe, they will serve as Shop Administrator and Certified ASE Master Technician respectively. Working to continue the family traditions and relationships with the community of Kitsap County, the Andersons plan to continue in the path laid before them by the Baxter brothers.

According to Mieka, “We don’t want to change how B & B Auto Repair is immersed heavily in the community. People will now just see myself or my husband as the face of the business.” If the last year is any indication, the Andersons already feel welcome. “Jeremiah and I have really appreciated the amazing support we have received from the Bremerton community for the transition.”

While the family vibe of B & B Auto Repair won’t change, customers may notice some updates the Andersons are planning. From new floors and signage to a waiting room with plugins and Wi-Fi plus a fun kids play area, the shop will be more inviting.

As a family-owned business, B & B Auto Repair is excited to transition from one family to the next. The family spirit will be alive and well for decades to come at B & B Auto Repair as the Anderson’s oldest son, Owen, is an active team member already. At just 24, Owen has already finished his AA in Master Technician and his ASE certification.

“Over the years, there is trust that you build between a shop and yourself and you can’t find that just anywhere. We are going to treat you like your family by being very transparent,” Mieke said. Through continuous education and placing a priority on learning about new advances in automobile designs, the Andersons plan to be “the best we can be for our customers.”
