WE TAKE SERIOUSLY OUR RESPONSIBILITIES TO EMPLOYEES AND THEIR FAMILIES
"After Rock Gate’s acquisition, we quickly saw their loyalty and commitment to the success of the company and its employees. They maintained and improved upon our family and team oriented culture and their leadership style has enabled us to realize tremendous company and employee growth. They’ve become friends, partners and members of the Collision Services family."
Brandon Lehr
Vice President & General Manager
Collision Services
"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Rock Gate for almost eight years. I have been a part of other acquisitions and this may sound cliché, but it was the easiest transition ever. Ken and Steve deeply care about the team and share our pride and passion for the business. Collectively we enhanced communication and teamwork, invested significantly in capacity expansion and continually find ways to improve processes. The company’s sales growth and profitability has been exceptional. The proof is in the results."
Darin Odom
Sales Manager & General Manager
Walpar
"At Walpar we took great pride in our family-oriented culture that valued long-term relationships with employees, customers and suppliers. Looking back, I am most proud of Rock Gate’s efforts to maintain this culture while pursuing their growth objectives. All commitments made were met and friendships remain today. A job well done."
