CARSTAR Vendor Partners Host Interactive Expo for CARSTAR Franchise Partners to Showcase Latest Products And Solutions

CARSTAR Franchise Partners’ Anniversaries Recognized During Event

Five CARSTAR Franchise Partners Celebrate 25th Anniversary

During the Momentum 2018 CARSTAR Conference this week in Calgary, AB, CARSTAR’s vendor partners hosted a dynamic trade show. Franchise partners could explore the latest collision repair technologies, solutions and resources offered through the CARSTAR program.

More than 60 vendor partners and resource providers participated in the event, including Axalta Coating Systems, BASF, 3M Automotive Aftermarket Division, National Coatings and Supplies, Akzo Nobel, Color Compass, Enterprise Holdings, Inc., and many more. At the event, CARSTAR franchise partners had an opportunity to visit with the exhibiting companies, learn more about the new products, innovative technologies, resources offered, and enjoy refreshments and lunch as they toured.

In addition, CARSTAR franchise partners had an opportunity to saddle up on a mechanical bull to test their rodeo skills and raise money for CARSTAR’s charitable efforts to support cystic fibrosis research, care and advocacy.

“This is a great opportunity for our CARSTAR franchise partners to see what’s new in the industry – from technology to tools, paint, uniforms, computer platforms – franchise partners learned a lot  about innovative solutions for their businesses,” said Michael Macaluso, president of CARSTAR. “We offer a big ‘thank you’ to our vendor partners for their support of this event. Without them, it would not be possible.”

As part of the event, CARSTAR  recognized the anniversaries and accomplishments of some of its longest-tenured franchise partners in the United States and Canada. They honored more than 43 Canadian and 47 U.S. facilities for their continued participation in the CARSTAR network.
