NewMark Merrill Companies Acquires Development Site in the San Diego Area; Quick Quack Car Wash To Open Its First Location in San Diego Region

NewMark Merrill South, the San Diego division of retail shopping center owner and development company NewMark Merrill Companies, announced today it has acquired a one-acre parcel located at the northeast corner of Business Park Drive and Poinsettia Avenue in the San Diego suburb of Vista, California. 

The site is leased to Quick Quack Car Wash, one of the fastest-growing express car wash brands in the Western United States. Quick Quack Car Wash is scheduled to open in the fourth quarter of 2025.

“It was important to bring a high-quality, service-oriented tenant like Quick Quack to the Vista area,” said Barret Bradley, Vice President of Acquisitions and Development at Newmark Merrill Companies. “This deal is one of many new retail developments we are pursuing with high-growth, quality operators looking to expand their footprint in San Diego.” 

“We are proud to bring the Quick Quack Car Wash experience to the City of Vista,” said Stephanie Baldwin, Real Estate Manager at Quick Quack Car Wash. “As our first location in San Diego County, this site represents an exciting milestone in our continued growth throughout California. We look forward to serving the local community with the same convenient, high-quality, and environmentally responsible car wash experience that has become the hallmark of our brand.”

Strategically positioned within Vista’s established business park district, the property benefits from robust traffic patterns, a dense mix of commercial and light industrial users, and close proximity to major transportation corridors. Quick Quack’s entry into this location reinforces both the strength of the brand and the vitality of the Vista submarket.

Construction is being managed by CM Corp and Eleven Western Construction.

NewMark Merrill’s acquisition, development, financing, and leasing teams for the project included John Hickman — Managing Director (San Diego), Barret Bradley — Vice President of Acquisitions and Development, Robert Mendoza — Director of Development & Construction, and Sandra Kist — Chief Financial Officer.
