It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Charles Bumgarner, the cherished
founder of OAK. Charles was a visionary whose values, leadership, and unwavering commitment shaped not only the foundation of OAK, but also the culture and community we’re proud to be part of today. His influence is felt in every corner of this organization, and his legacy will continue to inspire us.

Another member since inception, Ohio Auto Kolor, Inc. (OAK) prides itself on remaining true to the ideals that the program was founded on. “Thirty years has flown by quick,” said Keith Bumgarner, president of OAK. “It has been a solid relationship; there is give and take with both of our companies striving to work out what would be best for each other.” The Platinum Distributor® network program allows our distributors to specialize and focus on a single brand, a concept that Bumgarner said has proven to be an advantage in several areas for their company.

What a wonderful 30 years it's been!

On October 12th, we lost a member of our OAK family to a tragic accident just a few days before his 33rd birthday. Kendall was a wonderful team member, with a bright and contagious smile - he will be greatly missed.
