Kadel’s Auto Body Promotes D.J. Hall to Shop Manager

Hall, who started as a production assistant, will oversee staff of North Salem, Ore., location.


Kadel’s Auto Body, an Oregon-based MSO, has announced the promotion of D.J. Hall to the position of shop manager for its North Salem location.

Hall was born in Frankfurt, Germany, but considers himself a Texan at heart, having spent most of his life in San Antonio. He now resides in Hillsboro, Ore., with his wife Kelly and four children. He has a passion for water-cooled Volkswagens, the San Antonio Spurs and the Buffalo Bills.

“Some of my greatest professional opportunities have been with Kadel’s,” he said. “It is a great company to work for because of the excellent leadership.”

Hall joined Kadel’s Auto Body in 2009 as a production assistant and was later promoted to production manager. He has worked at a number of Kadel’s locations, including the Beaverton, Portland and Tigard repair centers.

Headquartered in Tigard, Ore., Kadel’s Auto Body is the region’s largest provider of auto body repair and the eighth largest independently owned auto body collision repair provider in the U.S. Since opening the first shop in Tigard in 1954, the company has expanded to 18 locations throughout the Pacific Northwest with shops in Oregon, Washington and Idaho.
