Holman Finalizes Acquisition of Leith Automotive, Nearly Doubles Retail Business
Global automotive services leader completes largest retail acquisition in 100-year history.
MOUNT LAUREL, NJ (March 19, 2024) — Holman, a global automotive services leader, has completed its acquisition of the North Carolina-based Leith Automotive Group. This nearly doubles Holman’s automotive retail business, which now features 58 dealerships, 34 brands, and almost 4,500 retail automotive employees in nine states; and marks the largest retail acquisition in Holman’s 100-year history.
This expansion of Holman’s retail portfolio includes 13 new franchises and its first auction center. All Leith facilities are located in the greater Raleigh area and Aberdeen, N.C.
“In our centennial year, we’re excited about the opportunities to strengthen and grow our automotive retail footprint that began in 1924 with a single dealership. This acquisition represents the culmination of extensive strategy, hard work and vision to put our employee partners and our business in a position to win for the next 100 years,”
Both family-owned organizations have a legacy of success and growth built on longstanding core values. Together, Holman and Leith remain committed to doing the right thing for their employees, customers and the community. The deal preserves the Leith brand and team.
“Like Holman, Leith has placed the highest priority on delivering excellent customer service by building a strong network of employee partners. We are thrilled to welcome Leith’s 1,900 employees to the Holman family.”
Holman ranks as one of America’s largest privately-owned dealership networks. Additionally, the certified, women-owned broader Holman business delivers a unique range of automotive-centric services to commercial and consumer customers around the globe.
