AUTO CARE INSIDER | VOL. 102
CHUCK Hartogh, president and owner,
C&M Auto Service Inc. in Glenview,
Ill., is the current chair of the Car Care
Professionals Network (CCPN) segment
community of the Auto Care Association.
"Being able to share ideas and
experiences with others who are part of
the auto care industry," said Hartogh,
"and having a line of communication
that goes to all levels of the aftermarket,
helping us to work as partners and
grow, are some of the rewards of being
a part of the Auto Care Association."
Hartogh officially started his career in
the auto care industry in 1976, working in
a service bay for a mass merchandiser.
"As a kid I was always taking things
apart and putting them back together,"
said Hartogh. "It started with bicycles,
small engines and mini bikes. I then
moved on to cars, my cars, my brother's
cars and friends' cars. After high
school, I got started working on cars
for a living and after two years in the
field I realized that in order to continue,
I would need to get formal training."
Hartogh received his associate
degree in automotive technology from
Triton College in River Grove, Ill. and
completed the Leadership 2.0 program
at Northwood University in 2015.
"Keeping up with a constantly
changing industry, not only on the
vehicle technology side, but with
business and marketing is important,"
said Hartogh. "Also, finding ways
to attract new, younger people into
an industry that has a multitude
of career opportunities that they
can be successful in is a huge
issue in the auto care industry."
Hartogh is currently also involved
in the Niles Chamber of Commerce as
acting president, Glenview Chamber
of Commerce, Auto-Wares Certified
Service Center Council and Vistage
Business Development Group.
In his spare time, he enjoys
spending time with his family,
golfing, boating, hunting, old cars
and tractors and gardening.
"I still like coming in and running
things for now," said Hartogh, "but
I also have a daughter who has
expressed interest in the industry
and may want to get involved in
my business. She just started auto
technology classes at Triton College."
