1Collision Network announced that it added six new locations in December 2012 to its network of independently owned shops: Nick & Ernies Autoworks1 in Skokie, Ill., Link Collision Center1 in Rice Lake, Wis., and the four BODYPROS locations in Des Moines, Iowa, that consist of Ace Body and Motor1, Altoona Auto Body1, Ankeny Auto Body1 and RJones Collision1.
Nick & Ernies Autoworks1 owner Ernie Loggarakis said, "Our decision to affiliate with the 1Collision Network was based on their Midwest focus, diverse variety of services and support offered, and their emphasis on performance and marketing."
Daniel Clark, COO at Link Collision Center1, said, "Link Collision is very excited to be given the opportunity to join the 1Collision Network. I expect our business to grow in 2013 due to our partnership with 1Collision."
Bob Jones, president of BODYPROS, added, "The 1Collision Network provided an opportunity for BODYPROS to become a part of a regional group of shops, providing us with solutions for the many business challenges shops face in today’s competitive marketplace."
"We are proud to have this group of shops join the 1Collision Network family," said 1Collision Network President Jim Keller. "Each of these locations brings a ‘tradition of excellence’ to our brand."
The 1Collision Network is a Midwest chain of independently owned collision repair businesses committed to "best-in-class" performance, developing trusting insurance relationships, and ensuring a positive, predictable and seamless repair experience for the consumer.
