Events and Promotions
By Jeff Puccini

WORLDPAC open house events are a great place to meet the WORLDPAC team, industry leading parts manufacturers, as well as learn important information about the products and services we offer. You may even win an exciting prize just for attending.

Special Events: From time to time, throughout North America, WORLDPAC conducts “Open House” events. Most of these events are held on a Saturday at your local WORLDPAC warehouse. During these events we try and have something for everyone. Attending customers report an increased understanding of WORLDPAC, what’s going on in the automotive industry and generally have a terrific time. We invite all of our customers to come out and spend some time with vendors, other professional installers, WORLDPAC management and maybe meet their sales associates for the very first time!

Information: We like to layout the venue like a small trade show. We invite key vendors from import and domestic part manufacturers to come out and talk to you about their products and what is new with their product line. This is your chance to talk directly to manufacturer representatives and sometimes the engineers that design the products you use in a no pressure, relaxed environment away from your business. You can tell a manufacturer how good their product is or problems you have been having with their merchandise. We have experienced occasions where a manufacturer has used our customer’s input to make changes to their product for improvement.

Prizes: During an open house event there are plenty of door prizes and giveaway items that are shared with our customers. Vendors bring plenty of items for attendees to promote their products. Although every event is different, door prizes in the past have included $1000 travel vouchers, Bosch 5 piece cordless tool kits, home theater items, one day racing schools and many more exciting gifts.

Education: Many of our events include free training seminars. From vendor sponsored product training, WTI technical service and business management tips to specific training on the WORLDPAC speedDIAL program, we’ve done it all.

Fun for all: The team here at WORLDPAC is very family orientated. We respect your time and encourage you to bring your spouse and children to our events. Our open house events always include fun activities for the children. Space providing, we will have a section dedicated to something as simple as a huge bounce-house or slide, or maybe large scale slot cars or an entire video arcade.

Food: We would never think of letting you go home hungry. All our open house events are catered by top restaurants or caterers in the area. We do our best to bring in the culture of a given area, from Cuban Paella in Miami to a down-home BBQ in Auburn Washington.

We know you work hard, so we try to provide an environment where you can bring home a gift or two, have great food and enjoyable conversations in a very relaxing environment. Talk to vendors and fellow shop owners, learn a bit about what is going on in the industry, meet with your sales associate and share some fun. Come join us the next time you hear of one of our open houses in your area, you won’t be disappointed.
