FIX AUTO CANADA WELCOMES FIX AUTO EDMONTON SOUTH

Owner operator Vladimir Komarov and family bring years of automotive passion and experience to Fix Auto’s network

Calgary (Alberta) – June 1 2016 – Peter Polito, General Manager of Fix Auto Western Canada, is glad to announce the addition of Fix Auto Edmonton South to the Fix Auto network, effective June 1 2016.

Vladimir Komarov, owner-operator of Fix Auto Edmonton South, recalls his beginnings in the collision repair industry and what it took to help develop his family’s independent shop. "Our family bought a body shop in 2011. We had only one 1500 sq. ft. bay with an old paint booth. It took time and effort to grow our shop to where we are now. We’ve grown to 4 bays with combined square footage of over 5500 sq. ft., as well as a new paint booth, frame rack, 3D measuring system and multiple other items required for proper collision repair," he says.

Komarov says that the decision to partner with Fix Auto came naturally to him and his team. He adds; "We realized that we had to take our body shop to the next level. We were looking for growth opportunities, and Fix Auto was the right partner for us." He continues: "We reached out to other Fix Auto locations that have been in business for a while, and they gave us great feedback about the network. However, one major decisive factor was the Fix Auto team; they guided us through the whole process in a very professional and supportive way."

The owner of Fix Auto Edmonton South concludes that the brand and network reflect his own values: "We take care of our customers and we are proud of the work we do on each vehicle. We are a family-owned business; our shop’s reputation is our reputation."

Peter Polito, Fix Auto Western Canada General Manager welcomes this new addition to the network, adding: "Fix Auto Canada’s network is made of forward-thinking business owners who place the customer first and recognize the importance of partnering with the right team. There is no doubt that Fix Auto Edmonton South is a partner of choice for our network and we look forward to growing together."
