ATLANTA, Feb. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Speedemissions Inc. , the largest vehicle emissions and safety inspection company in the U.S., has opened its first two test only stores in the cities of St. Peters and Crestwood. A third store will be opening in Overland at the end of March. The Atlanta-based company, whose business is emissions testing/safety inspections for cars, light trucks, SUV's and vans, is bringing its "One-Stop Safety & Emissions Inspection" model to stores in the greater St. Louis market area. Rich Parlontieri, President/CEO stated, "We are driving the initiative to streamline and standardize an industry focused on reducing auto-emissions pollution. One-stop safety and emissions testing has become the preferred way to have automobiles tested in cities that conduct both emissions and safety inspections. This means consumers will save time and convenience because they don't have to make a separate appointment for auto inspections. We are pleased to be able to introduce our "test only" store concept to the St. Louis market. We believe this is a market where we can do very well, given the fact that Missouri had a centralized testing program up until a few months ago. With the addition of these new stores, we now have a presence in five major cities: Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Salt Lake City and St. Louis. " About Speedemissions Inc., at: www.speedemissions.com Speedemissions, Inc. based in Atlanta, Georgia, plans to become the leading vehicle emissions testing (and safety inspection where required) company in the United States in areas where emission testing is mandated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Since the emission testing business is highly fragmented, Speedemissions expects to be the first company to create a national brand offering their customers quick and efficient vehicle emission testing service. The focus of the company at the present time is the Atlanta, GA. Houston, TX and Salt Lake City, UT Markets.
