With top of the line technologies including a Nova Verta Spray Booth and Double Prep Station, a Car-O-Liner Frame Rack with Computerized Measuring, a Compression Spot Welder and more, CARSTAR Medicine Hat will ensure minimal cycle time for customers with the highest quality repairs. CARSTAR Medicine Hat will also strive to achieve the highest customer experience in the Medicine Hat market.

Trevor and Bruce joined forces in 2004 with the launch of CARSTAR Lethbridge in Lethbridge, Alberta. Focusing their strengths on excellent customer experience at a fair price for the insurance industry has lead to exceptional growth and business success.

“It’s a great story,” said Lisa Mercanti-Ladd, VP Marketing & Client Services at CARSTAR. “Bruce and Trevor have done everything right to become model franchise partners. We look forward to working with them to duplicate that success in Medicine Hat.”

“Our ultimate goal for our company has always been working towards becoming multi CARSTAR store owners (MCSO) and providing best in class service at each of our locations,” said Bruce. “The Medicine Hat market needed a state of the art collision centre that understands the needs of insurers and insureds alike. CARSTAR Medicine Hat will meet those needs.”

CARSTAR would like to congratulate Bruce, Trevor and their staff on the opening of this new CARSTAR location and becoming multi-store owners!
