November 27, 2023 // Franchising.com // CHARLOTTE, NC - At the first night of the 2023 Maaco Convention, themed “The Future of Better”, Maaco celebrated the successes of the year.

As part of the event, Maaco announced the Maaco Regional Cup awards, which recognize operators for top sales, production, and overall performance within their given region. Regional Cup recipients are champions of the Maaco brand, strategic partners, and help lead their markets and regions to higher achieving levels. This year’s recipients are:

Regional Cup Central: Nick Patel, Addison, IL

This owner is platinum certified. His attention to detail, and specifically fleet business, have earned him previous accolades such as the Maaco Cup back in 2018.

Regional Cup Southeast: Justin DePasquale, Ft. Myers, FL

In recognition of this franchisee’s exceptional commitment to the Maaco operating systems and their unwavering determination in the face of adversity, Maaco is proud to present this franchisee and their center with this well-deserved award. This shop has endured and overcome some tough challenges, including weathering the devastating impacts of Hurricane Ian last year. This franchisee, his manager and their team are dedicated to supporting each other and their community, both in hard times and good, which continues to be the foundation of their success.

Regional Cup West: Robert and Keita Reid, Mansfield, TX

The Western Regional Cup was presented to a pair of owners from the west region – Robert and Keita Reid. Since first joining the network over seven years ago, these owners have been a consistent force within their region. Their focus on operational excellence shows that they are a true leader within the industry. One of these owners has also played a pivotal role in piloting CCC ONE to support the sustained growth of our network and ultimately streamline operations. This duo also has a deep passion for helping fellow franchisee brothers and sisters, and shows through as a valued member of the Advisory Council. Their efforts to remain active both in their business and on their business do not go unnoticed and resulted in consistent performance across all areas.

Regional Cup Northeast: Inge Family, Chesapeake, VA

The Northeast Regional Cup award goes to an industrious multigenerational family of owners from the Northeast region – the Inge family. This shop is extremely team-oriented and even honors their team members with a dedicated team recognition area.

Regional Cup Canada: Peter Flannigan

The Regional Cup Canada award goes to an owner with a longstanding reputation for giving back to the community – Peter Flannigan. From going the extra mile on the paint job of a classic car, pitching in with a community effort to give back to someone in need, being recognized by the community as a top repair provider, or even making generous donations to local charities, this owner goes above and beyond for his close-knit community. Since joining the network in 2016, when they won Rookie of Year, this franchisee has been regarded by his peers as a supportive colleague proven by his previous tenure as a member of the Advisory Council.

“Congratulations to these incredible entrepreneurs and families that remain constantly focused on building the Maaco brand and their business,” said Daryl Hurst, president, Maaco. “These owners are role models for our franchise partner family and are setting the standard for Maaco now and into the future of better.”
