At NAPA Auto Care’s annual Vendor Partner Summit held last week in Atlanta, Georgia, Endeavor Business Media’s Vehicle Repair Group was given the 2023 Marketing & Service Excellence Award, according to a press release.
"We pride ourselves on providing industry leading solutions from reputable vendors for all of our NAPA Auto Care center members," said Jason Rainey, vice president of NAPA Auto Care, AAA Preferred Partner, and Autotech. "Our annual Vendor Partner Summit proved that NAPA Auto Care does exactly that. We celebrate this year's winners, including Endeavor Business Media's Vehicle Repair Group, KUKUI, NAPA TRACS, and Jay Sorensen."
Endeavor’s Vehicle Repair Group–which includes Ratchet+Wrench among other automotive titles–first partnered with NAPA Auto Care in 2023 to create NAPA INSIGHT: a quarterly publication for NAPA Auto Care center owners.
NAPA INSIGHT provides NAPA industry news, success stories of Auto Care centers nationwide, and opportunities available for other Auto Care center owners. The publication includes quarterly features contributed by Carm Cappriotto of ASE and the NAPA Auto Care Advisory Council.
“I am grateful for the partnership the Vehicle Repair Group has formed with NAPA Auto Care and we are honored to receive this distinguished award,” said Chris Messer, VP/group publisher of the Vehicle Repair Group. “This would not have been possible without the hard work of our team, including Chad Hjellming, Andrew Johnson, Leah Marxhausen, Emily Kline, Abby White, Charles Thomas, Matt Wiebe, Mariah Straub, Beverly Beckert, Christian Fahlen, and Jennifer George. Our collaboration truly showcases what our Endeavor Business Media team is capable of when we are at our best.”
