In keeping with tradition, the NAPA AUTOPRO network is highlighting the workshops in its network that have stood out for their excellence in a number of areas.

For 2022, Mécanique Auto D.R. from Lévis took first place, followed by Pneu et mécanique Mario Bédard from Montréal, while garage Y.M. Desmarais from Saint-Constant won the bronze medal.

The NAPA AUTOPRO Workshop of the Year Award recognizes automotive workshops in Quebec and Ontario that have successfully met the standards of the NAPA AUTOPRO banner.

The NAPA AUTOPRO Workshop of the Year Award is a major accolade in the automotive engineering industry.

In Canada, there are more than 600 NAPA AUTOPRO members. However, this initiative is only available to 235 members in the Quebec and Eastern Ontario regions.

Four NAPA AUTOPRO business development specialists make up the panel of judges, who first visit the participating workshops to complete an evaluation grid.

Selection criteria included sales improvement over the previous year, compliance with the banner’s image and standards, and participation in its programmes.

The presentation of these prizes is an event for the winners, their teams and even their families.

Gifts are presented to them during an evening of celebrations.
