History

Bud Glassman and Art Lankin started Safelite in a junkyard in Wichita, Kansas in 1947.[1]

The company declared bankruptcy in 1997, after which time, the company became owned by its largest debtor, J.P. Morgan & Co.[2]

In 2007, Safelite was acquired by Luxembourg based Belron, which is in turn owned by the D'Ieteren group,[3] Belron is the world's largest vehicle glass company, providing service in over 32 countries.

Thomas Feeney became the president and CEO in 2008.[4] In late 2021, Renee Cachillo became the President and CEO as Thomas Feeney moved into a leadership role for Belron North America.
