New CAA Store opens its doors for business in Pickering

New look and feel for our customers 

PICKERING, ON, Jan. 20, 2016 /CNW/ - From the moment customers and members walk through the new doors of the CAA Pickering Store, they feel right at home. Friendly greeters are on hand to welcome and direct guests through the home-inspired store layout.

After two months of construction and the relocation of its Scarborough store, CAA South Central Ontario (CAA SCO) is now celebrating the grand opening of its new store in Pickering.

"We are proud to unveil a retail location in Pickering which will help us better serve the needs of our members. The move from Scarborough is the result of dedication, hard work and countless hours of planning, designing and constructing," said Kathy Kelly, Director Sales & Distribution, CAA SCO.

The new features to the 3,463 square foot store are a combination of technology and convenience which include a video wall, three digital displays and plenty of comfortable seating for customers.

"Whether you are booking your next family vacation, purchasing movie tickets, updating your passport photos or reviewing your insurance needs, we welcome you to the new CAA Pickering Store – your home away from home," added Kelly.

The design comes complete with a living room where customers can sit back and take in the "view" or browse a tablet while they wait to speak to one of our knowledgeable and experienced employees.

Meanwhile, a warm fireplace creates an inviting ambience for home and auto insurance customers in the den-like section of the store.

The new CAA Pickering Store, located at 1099 Kingston Road, is one of 34 retail locations in the South Central Ontario region.

For over a hundred years, CAA has been helping Canadians stay mobile, safe and protected. CAA South Central Ontario is one of nine auto clubs across Canada providing roadside assistance, travel, insurance services and member savings for our 2 million members.
