Abra announced Abra Princeton in Minnesota and the KLST Abra Group as the recipient of the prestigious Top Gun Award at the Ascend 2025 Conference.
The honor recognizes unparalleled leadership, consistent performance and enduring contributions to both the Abra network and the local communities they serve.
With more than 30 years in the industry and a footprint that now includes six locations, the Johnson family, and most importantly their team, have built more than a successful business — they’ve built a legacy. Known for blending operational excellence with deep community involvement, the KLST Abra Group leads through innovation, compassion and an unwavering commitment to the Abra brand.
From hosting charity golf tournaments and supporting holiday initiatives to championing youth outreach and educational programs, this team represents the very best of what it means to be a local business with national impact.
“It’s an incredible honor to receive this recognition,” said Kedrick Johnson, owner of Abra Princeton and leader of the KLST Abra Group. “Success is about more than numbers — it’s about people. Our team, our community and our partners have all played a part in this journey. I’m proud of what we’ve built together and excited for what’s next.”
“Kedrick Johnson is the kind of leader who inspires everyone around him,” said Damien Reyna, COO of U.S. Collision, Driven Brands. “His track record speaks for itself — consistent growth, strong partnerships and a deep sense of responsibility to the community. The Top Gun Award is a celebration of excellence, and Kedrick and his team exemplify that in every sense.”
