MANHEIM OPERATING LOCATIONS HONORED BY FORD

ATLANTA – Manheim operating locations in Chicago, St. Louis and Texas Hobby have been selected as recipients of a 2013 Ford Auction Recognition Award. As part of the Ford Auction Service Award Program, these locations were honored for their performance against key service level criteria.

Ford recognized winners in four groups: GT, Mach 1, Cobra and Boss. In two out of these four groups, Manheim auctions were selected as winners in both the closed and open sale categories.

Manheim Chicago was selected best for open and closed sales in the Mach 1 group, a grouping of the highest-volume auctions. Manheim St. Louis earned the award for best in the GT group, a grouping of smaller-volume auctions.

Additionally, Manheim Texas Hobby in Houston won the Ford ASAP Second Half Sprint Closed Sale Award as the auction with the greatest improvement in the second half versus the first half of 2013.

“We are proud of these three locations and their great accomplishments in 2013,” said Nick Peluso, Manheim senior vice president of customer management. “This is a testament to the great partnership Manheim and these locations have with Ford. We value our partnership with Ford, and appreciate this terrific recognition.”
