The owner of a Windsor Ontario auto repair shop believes labor is one of the biggest challenges facing the auto repair sector, which is why they've built the shop they have, to attract workers of all abilities and backgrounds to service station careers

the new owners invested nearly $1 million to upgrade the operation to include full digital integration, new self-operating equipment, and other features to reduce physical strain and support technicians of all abilities.

"To be able to actually bring in students through our door and show them the stereotypes they may have, about what independent shops look like, isn't really true," she says. "Look at our shop; it's clean, it's technologically advanced, and there are components that are light on the body. There is a lot more of using your mind now with vehicles than actually using your bodies."

"Our biggest challenge is labor, and that's why we've built the shop we've built-to be able to attract all people of all abilities and all backgrounds. We have great partnerships in the community where we're constantly bringing in tours, showing students and young people and parents, that shops exist that are clean and friendly environments where they can thrive and grow," she says.

"We invested our money back into our community, and also, with the way our industry is going, we as a young couple were able to continue a legacy and allow Windsor-Essex to still have an option to go to an independent local business but with service that is elevated and totally transparent," she says.
