Officials from Manheim Central California and the Fresno Chamber of Commerce took part in a ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark the completion of an exterior and interior renovation project that included the beautification of the auction entrance area and interior remodeling.

The two-year project cost more than $600,000, and included cafeteria remodel, new office carpeting, and painting throughout the facility. Manheim Central California is a wholesale vehicle auction located at 278 N. Marks Ave. in Fresno.

“We are excited about this project, and the opportunity to give our customers a bright and cheerier place to conduct business,” Manheim Central California GM Kim Waterman said. “This really has given our facility a new appearance both inside and out.”

Waterman is an ambassador with the Fresno Chamber of Commerce.
