Fortune 500 insurance company recognizes local auto body facility

June 24, 2011 - PRLog -- Erie Insurance ,  a Fortune 500 company and provider of homeowners and automotive insurance, recently invited owners and managers from both Professionals Auto Body locations to their Johnstown, PA office to recognize the efforts of the employees of Professionals for providing a high level of service and quality repairs to their insured policyholders. In addition, Erie Insurance took this opportunity to point out that the processes created and implemented by Professionals to accurately repairs vehicles with profound speed brings extraordinary high levels of quality and value to their customers. Professionals had far exceeded their expectations and have set a higher standard of expertise for the rest of the automotive collision repair industry.

Erie Insurance also noted that the communication procedures Professionals Auto Body applies for their customers and Erie represents the ideal consumer experience for their clients and believes that a quality automotive repair shop such as Professionals allows them to retain and acquire new policyholders.

“It’s refreshing to work with a company and their agents like Erie Insurance who shares the same values and culture involving consumer confidence and satisfaction as we do” said Professionals Auto Body owner Ron Perretta. “All too often we see customers come through our doors with substandard insurance companies who are more concerned with saving themselves costs rather than addressing their customers’ needs by restoring their vehicles properly.  So when we see that a customer of ours (who are also our friends and neighbors) will be using Erie Insurance, we know their vehicle will be in good hands on both sides of the repair process.”

Both Erie Insurance and Professionals Auto Body look forward to maintaining their strong working business relationship to ensure that their customers continue to receive a higher level of quality and professional service that brings value to everyone involved.
