NOLN Operator of the Year Award

 

Do you know a quick maintenance all-star?
Give them the recognition they deserve!

Operators in quick maintenance need to be multi-talented. They direct their teams to excel with customers and vehicles, all while running a growing business or shop network. No one knows better than you the amount of work, dedication, care, and scrupulous attention to detail that your peers put into their businesses and taking care of customers. 

For decades, NOLN has been recognizing excellent shop owners for the Operator of the Year Award. Nominations take place in the springtime, and the winner is announced in September.

Nominations open on March 14, 2025 and close April 30, 2025.

“So, I try to tell my guys, ‘Nobody wants to be sold anything.' They want to be told about their car. They want to be told what they need, or what could make their car better or make it last longer.”
