IAA’s Strategic Growth and Expansion Continues Throughout North America
Westchester, Ill. — Insurance Auto Auctions, Inc., the leading hybrid model salvage auto auction company and a wholly owned subsidiary of KAR Auction Services, Inc. (NYSE: KAR), today announced the opening of its facility in Shepherdsville, Ky., located south of downtown Louisville. The convenient location is near Interstate 65 and marks the fourth IAA location in Kentucky.
“As part of Insurance Auto Auctions’ core business growth strategy, we continue to expand at a steady pace with investments in locations throughout North America by adding Louisville to our more than 155 facilities,” said Tom O’Brien, chief executive officer at IAA. “Our disciplined approach to investing in facilities enables us to provide more strategic locations for our customers. As a result, our customers realize even greater benefits in reduced transportation costs and more choices and variety than ever before.” O’Brien stated.
IAA’s mature global buyer base, which consists of automotive body shops, rebuilders, used car dealers, automotive wholesalers, exporters, dismantlers, recyclers, brokers and, where allowed, non-licensed (public) buyers, now have even more choices when it comes to the number of salvage vehicles to bid on and buy.
