WESTCHESTER, Ill. -

Insurance Auto Auctions recently announced the grand opening of its IAA Louisville North location in Eminence, Ky.

The new location officially opened on Feb. 22, featuring a ribbon cutting ceremony and selling more than 150 vehicles, including a 2013 Rolls-Royce Ghost that sold for $93,000.

“The IAA Louisville North facility will expand the company’s presence in the area by providing buyers and sellers with greater convenience and access to increased inventory,” said John Kett, IAA’s president and chief executive officer. “We are dedicated to strategically increasing our locations in order to better serve our existing and future customers, and this Kentucky branch adds to the company’s growing footprint in the industry, with more than 170 locations in North America.”

The new location features a 9,000-square-foot facility that sits on 30 acres of land, which the company says leaves plenty of room for future expansion.

“Along with our current locations in Louisville, Ashland, Bowling Green and Paducah, IAA recognized the need for an additional branch location to meet the region’s growing demand,” said Jeanene O’Brien, IAA’s vice president of global marketing. “Eminence also provides good access for our clients who would attend weekly auctions in person, and offers convenience to the major markets of Louisville, Lexington and Cincinnati.”

IAA Louisville North hosts its auctions every other week on Mondays. For more information, visit the IAA information page here.
