CARSTAR Brampton Has New Owners, But Leaves Legacy of Giving Back

Since 2001, CARSTAR Brampton and owner, Frank Sottile, have a long history of serving the Brampton, ON community, from supporting Cystic Fibrosis Canada to providing local drivers the highest-quality vehicle repairs.

CARSTAR Brampton is now preparing for another group of future leaders, Mike Cherneta and Kapi Komera, who lead the MGM Group, which consists of CARSTAR Milton, CARSTAR Georgetown and CARSTAR Mississauga 401. Sottile has transferred ownership of his location to this successful ownership group to keep his legacy moving forward in the community.

“We’re honoured to work with Frank on the transition of his business and continue his passion for his employees and the community,” said Kapi Komera. “What a great stage they’ve set for serving the community and its drivers. We look forward to building CARSTAR Brampton for the future.”

Both Komera and Cherneta began their careers as CARSTAR employees, working with CARSTAR owners to learn the ins and outs of the business. With their employee background, they truly value the benefit of a strong employee team, and plan to continue on with the Brampton employee team in place. They also will embark on a focused effort to improve KPIs, repair processes, facility efficiency and employee training to enhance the growth of the operation.”

“We’re thrilled to welcome Kapi and Mike as the new owners of CARSTAR Brampton, and thank Frank and his family for their many years of providing the highest-quality vehicle repairs and excellent customer service in the Brampton community,” said David Foster, SVP of operations and development, CARSTAR. “We wish he and his family all the best in the future, and we’re excited to see what new accomplishments Kapi and Mike will achieve in Brampton.”
