We have come a long way since the night Bruce and Joyce sat down around the table with their kids to think of a name for this shop, but family is still at the heart of our operation.

    Bruce and Joyce Hansen founded Great Plains Auto Body in   November 1988 as a family owned and operated auto body repair shop. We first opened our doors in a 5000sq. ft. leased facility at 78th and "F" street. In 1992, 2500 sqft. were added. In 1996, we purchased the 17,000 sqft. building and 3 and 1/2 acres of land, that serves as our current location. The growth did not stop there. In 2000, we underwent a major addition to the repair facilities (12,000sqft) and an extensive remodel to the administrative offices. Along the way, we have found excellent employees who believe in the service we want to provide.

   Bruce and Joyce's daughter Sarah worked in administration for a couple years and now contributes to our newsletter and website, her brother Matt, who is general manager, is overseeing day-to-day operations, his wife Erin handles human resources and accounting, and Joyce's brother Charles manages the facility and network operations. All of our growth has only helped us to serve you better, and our family roots have kept us grounded.
