DALLAS, Jan. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Copart, Inc.
(NASDAQ: CPRT), a global online vehicle auction company, is proud
to announce the addition of its Orlando North location in
Apopka, Florida. This marks
Copart's 13th location in the Sunshine State.
"We have been steadily growing our footprint for months now, and
I'm pleased to continue that trend into 2017 with this being the
third new location we have announced in the first month of this
year," said Jay Adair, CEO of
Copart.
In addition to announcing the opening of the Orlando North
location today, Copart has announced the opening of locations in
Casper, Wyoming and Denver, Colorado this year, along with the
expansion of existing locations in Chicago, San

Copart practices good corporate citizenship. When Copart first
joined the Apopka, Florida
community, it made a commitment to assist local Boy Scout troop
member, Christian Lamphere, in
completing the construction of a monument to honor the first
responders lost in the Sept. 11
terrorist attacks.
"Christian's story of dedication and perseverance was
inspirational," said Adair. "As a new member of the Apopka community, we were honored to
contribute toward the construction of such a meaningful
monument."
As a proud community partner, Copart also offers law
enforcement, fire departments and similar government agencies a
safe training environment. Copart locations are also used by
agencies as a controlled environment to train K-9s to track
narcotics and explosive devices. Agencies are encouraged to contact
their local Copart location to learn more about conducting training
at Copart. In addition to supporting local agencies, Copart
supports numerous local, regional and national charities. To learn
