Canada NewsWire

EDMONTON, AB, Oct. 4, 2021 /CNW/ - AutoCanada Inc. ("AutoCanada" or the "Company") (TSX: ACQ), a multi-location North American automobile dealership group, announced that it has completed the acquisition of Airdrie Autobody, a collision centre located in Airdrie, Alberta.

Airdrie Autobody has been providing high quality service to the Airdrie community for over 25 years and is strategically located close to seven of AutoCanada's dealerships including: Airdrie Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, Courtesy Chrysler, Crowfoot Hyundai, Fish Creek Nissan, Hyatt Infiniti, Northland Volkswagen, and Tower Chrysler. The acquisition supports the Company's strategy to develop its national collision centre network to match AutoCanada's existing dealerships.

"Our focus remains on supporting our customers and OEM partners through the entire vehicle ownership lifecycle – including collision repair. Increasing vehicle complexity puts a further emphasis on fixing vehicles the right way – using parts and procedures prescribed by the OEM."
