The ServNet Auction Group has brought in a new member: Akron Auto Auction.

Announcing the new addition, ServNet president Patty Stanley said: “It continues to be our goal to identify the best independent auto auctions in markets not currently covered by one of our ServNet member auctions, and we are delighted to announce that Akron Auto Auction is now a member of the ServNet Auction Group.”

She added: “As one of the auction industry’s pioneer facilities, tracing its beginnings back to 1945, Akron Auto Auction has played an important role in the market for 70 years, incorporating service, commitment and innovation to produce superior results for its customers.

“I join with the other ServNet auction owners in welcoming Akron Auto Auction and look forward to working in collaboration with auction owner and president Chad M. Bailey and his auction team.”

Founded in 1945, Akron Auto Auction is located on 30 acres, runs six lanes and has four separate buildings.  The auction features a full transportation department, reconditioning department, inspection department and floor planning services. It runs an average of 1,200 vehicles each Tuesday.

 “We are very pleased to join the ServNet Auction Group, and to be part of a network of auctions that continues to set the bar for leadership and service to the industry,” said Bailey, the third-generation owner of the Akron, Ohio auction. 

“I look forward to collaborating with the ServNet auction owners as well as working with ServNet’s executive team to expand Akron Auto Auction’s influence and opportunities on both a regional and national level,” he continued.
