CARSTAR Expands in Washington

June 15, 2016

June 15, 2016—CARSTAR Auto Body Repair Experts announced Tuesday the addition of CARSTAR Hi-Tech Olympia in Olympia, Wash.

The 7,500-square-foot shop is the sixth location for owner Tracey Copeland. Copeland purchased an existing collision repair shop and is in the process of rebranding. 

“The previous owners were doing a fair amount of business out of this location,” Shaun Copeland, general manager of CARSTAR Hi-Tech Olympia, said. “We are going to ramp that up and bring in the CARSTAR processes to improve efficiency, enhance production and grow the location.”
