Unfortunately, Marquis/Carver has announced a temporary shut down of operations, effective March 1. The company has been for sale after the passing of previous owner. There was a sale in progress but that buyer pulled out at the last minute. Search for buyer continues. 344 employees are impacted, but it is anticipated this shut down is temporary and short. It may not happen at all if a new buyer enters the transaction soon. First, let's cross fingers, send prayers and hope something positive happens quickly. The company and staff is passionately committed to the industry, as well as all of us owners. A lot of us had great interaction with the top notch talent there. Second, if there is anything you need from Carver, contact them asap. Have not heard if there will be a skeleton crew to field inquiries. Finally, if there are any Carver impacted employees reading this, especially from the detailing department, PM or email me via this site. Because of the timing of this event, I could connect you with some owners looking for help with season prep projects. Good luck to all, things will work out for the best! er
