INDIANAPOLIS -

Auction Broadcasting Co. president Jason Hockett announced this week that ABC is welcoming its eighth auction location, thanks to a partnership it reached with OKI Auto Auction in Cincinnati.

The auction, founded in 2001 and located on 11 acres, will be renamed ABC Cincinnati.  It also built a brand new facility in 2011 and recently purchased a full recondition and mechanical facility.

“The auction is owned and operated by Lee and Tony Schoenling, a father-and-son team.  We are a family business, so it’s exciting for me to work with the Schoenling family,” Hockett said.  “The auction is located directly on Interstate 75 in the heart of Cincinnati.” 

Tony Schoenling commented: “We are proud to be joining the ABC Family.  With the addition of ABC’s innovative technology and the well-respected Hockett family name, ABC Cincinnati will strive to be the best auction in the Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana Tri-State area.”

Including this facility, the eight ABC Auctions are located in Baton Rouge La.; Birmingham Ala.; Bowling Green, Ky.; Cincinnati; Detroit/Toledo, Ohio; Lancaster, Pa.; Orlando, Fla.; and St. Louis.
