Jan. 5, 2017—CARSTAR Auto Body Repair Experts announced this week that its annual event, the CARSTAR North America Conference, will be held Aug. 23–26 in Charlotte, N.C.
CARSTAR Auto Body Repair Experts joined Driven Brands Inc. in 2015, and in 2016 integrated with CARSTAR Canada to become CARSTAR North America.
Themed the “Power of One,” the CARSTAR Conference will be held at the Westin Hotel in Charlotte. It will open with its annual awards presentation Saturday night to recognize the top-performing franchisees, then shift gears to focus on strategic planning, management and technical education sessions, panel discussions, vendor partner networking events, motivational speakers and an insurance industry forum.
“Over the past year, CARSTAR has expanded its presence as the most dynamic company in the collision industry,” said Michael Macaluso, president of CARSTAR North America. “Our conference will reflect this with an event where store owners, business leaders, vendor partners and insurance companies come together to help build the collective industry for the future.”
