Buddy Bear Car Wash celebrating 50 years of giving back to community

50 Years in Business: A Golden Anniversary for Buddy Bear Car Wash Buddy Bear Car Wash is celebrating its 50th anniversary, and we’re excited to announce the opening of our newest location in the Chatham neighborhood!

What began on the West Side of Chicago in 1972 has since expanded to the South Side and surrounding suburbs, becoming a beloved community staple. The grand opening of our 15th location in Chatham on September 26, 2024, was nothing short of spectacular. The ribbon-cutting ceremony, which kicked off at 11 a.m., was followed by a celebration that included free car washes for the first 10,000 customers. Phil DeGeratto, the passionate owner of Buddy Bear Car Wash, carries forward a rich family legacy of entrepreneurship.

His grandfather, affectionately known as “Papa Bear,” owned the popular Big Bear Foods supermarket in the 1960s. His father, Phillip DeGeratto, affectionately known as “Buddy Bear,” owned the well-known Buddy Bear Food Centers on Chicago’s West and South sides. For many, Buddy Bear Car Wash is more than just a place to clean cars. It’s a trusted friend, a source of hope, and a true champion of the community. Visit us at 243 W. 83rd St. in Chatham and experience the difference for yourself. Here’s to many more years of serving our amazing community!

Testimonials

Our clients love us and we love them too.

Pretty good car wash for decent price, as cheap as $3. I paid the Buddy bear special which is $14.99, which is pretty decent for a good wash, wax coat and tire shine applied. Vacuums are strong enough for self cleaning and friendly staff.

Gas and Car Wash
Forgot to get gas. Cashier(can’t remember her name it started with a M) was great. She even had me interested in a monthly Car Wash package. Friendly and Professional and one of the cleanest and well stocked Gas Stations I’ve ever seen.
