Inside the IDA with Conner Bates
<p>Host Levi Gates sits down with another Idaho Native, Conner Bates, Owner of MVP Distributing. </p><p>Conner says "I am an Idaho native and had a brief dive into car detailing while helping my brother with some small-time detailing when I was young. Immediately after high school, I began working as a first responder, where I worked for over a decade until I was medically retired in 2020. In July 2020, knowing my career as a first responder was coming to a close, I purchased MVP Distributing from Tom Smith. We have maintained what he started with, providing detail products to the dealerships and detail shops. We have since opened a retail store called MVP Detail Supply, where we represent The Rag Company as their local factory store. We also offer installation services for tint, PPF, and wrap. We now have a fully operational website that I am extremely proud of. We have had a ton of help along the way, and I have a special relationship with Levi Gates, as he has spent countless hours helping us along the way so we can be successful. Thank you, guys for the opportunity to join you on the podcast. "</p>
