Berkshire Hathaway and its subsidiaries engage in diverse business activities, including property and casualty insurance and reinsurance, utilities and energy, freight rail transportation, finance, manufacturing, retailing, and services.
In early 2015, Berkshire Hathaway concluded the acquisition of Van Tuyl Group, the nation's largest privately owned automotive dealership group, consisting of over 100 automotive franchises in 10 states. Included in the transaction were an extensive array of services and products, including: web services; digital marketing; in-store process consultation; MPP Company, which provides a comprehensive selection of extended warranty services and other automotive protection plans; as well as auto auctions and collision center resources.
This provides a solid foundation from which to build, with an eye always toward being the best. As part of the Berkshire Hathaway family of businesses, Berkshire Hathaway Automotive is led by CEO Jeff Rachor, as well as its experienced senior management team.
With outstanding dealerships operated by local partners and excellent relations with the major auto manufacturers, Berkshire Hathaway Automotive delivers unusually high volumes at its numerous locations.
