July 13, 2016—The 1Collision Network announced Tuesday that it has acquired the Direct Repair Shop Network (DSRN), based in California.
DRSN members have been invited to apply for affiliation with the 1Collision Network.
John Torchia, founder of DRSN, said, "As I personally transition into a new segment within the collision repair Industry, I searched for a collision repair group that would be a viable option for the DRSN shops, and 1Collision was the best fit.”
"Having John Torchia recommend his DRSN shops to affiliate with 1Collision validates our business model, and is the logical next step for them to prepare for their successful future in the ever changing collision repair industry," 1Collision Network president Jim Keller said.
A special 1Collision Network event will be co-located at the 2016 NACE/CARS Conference & Expo for DRSN shop owners and managers, and any other shops interested in the 1Collision Network.
