LUMBERTON CHEVROLET BUICK GMC HUMMER cuts the ribbon!
The Lumberton Area Chamber of Commerce held a ribbon cutting today for the new expansion of Lumberton Chevrolet Buick GMC Hummer’s Body Shop!
Bill Shotwell, Executive General Manager, stated “We are proud to announce the massive expansion of our body shop. Led by Body Shop Manager Donald Britt and his team-the expansion added 12,400 sq. feet to the existing building . We are now the largest body shop within 200 miles including state-of-the-art equipment for all body parts. Lumberton Chevrolet Buick GMC works on all makes and models. We recently received the “Best of the Best” Customer Satisfaction Award from Allstate for being in the top 2% in the nation, located across from Lumberton High at 500 Linkhaw Road. With this new expansion, Lumberton Chevrolet Buick GMC plans to add more jobs to our county.
Congratulations to Lumberton Chevrolet Buick GMC Hummer on their new addition to their body shop and thank you for your commitment to better serve the needs of our community!
Regional Modulars Cuts The Ribbon
The ribbon was cut for Regional Modulars on February 28th, its one-year anniversary. Regional Modulars is part of a national chain of 70+ retail locations and is the only one of its kind in the company. The company has nine locations in the Carolinas, but two of the nine are in Lumberton and can serve all of NC and SC with manufactured and modular homes.
Bender Chavis, General Manager of Regional Modulars, noted that the team is constructing homes as far as 4.5 hours away from Lumberton at the moment, but is excited to see that the local business is increasing. Bender attributes their success to the team’s determination to provide an exceptional customer experience. Tyler Wright, Vice President, stated that modular homes offer many of the benefits of site-built construction including exterior elevations, build quality, customization, finance opportunities, and resale value, but typically come in at a better price per square foot and are often fully constructed and ready to move into more quickly. To expedite the process further, Regional Modulars has been acquiring property locally and is offering land/home packages that are move-in-ready immediately.
The business celebrated with the ribbon cutting as well as serving a delicious brunch to all attendees. Several drawings were held, and many won gifts. The business is located at 307 N. Roberts Avenue in Lumberton. They can be reached at 910-827-8270. Give them a call today or stop by to tour their display models.
Pictured: Bender Chavis – General Manager cutting the ribbon along with his wife Tanya, Debbie Branyon – Chamber Chairperson, Mayor Bruce Davis, Councilman Eric Chavis, Jason King-Assistant – County Manager, Tyler Wright – Regional Vice President, and many members of the Regional Modulars team.
