DALLAS –

E-commerce company RumbleOn experienced strong growth in 2018, and the company’s founder, chairman and chief executive officer Marshall Chesrown said in a news release that Peter Levy was “instrumental in the execution of our vision and continual success of this company.”

RumbleOn has rewarded Levy for that work. The company announced the promotion of Levy to chief operating officer.

Levy, who since November 2017 has served as RumbleOn senior vice president of operations, will lead day-to-day operations and overarching strategy for the sales, inventory management, dealer relations, and marketing departments.

In the senior vice president of operations role, Levy helped lead the acquisition of Wholesale Inc. RumbleOn said in a news release that Levy guided the company through its expansion into the pre-owned automotive market.

“With his results-oriented attitude and proven track record of collaborative leadership across our various teams, I have every confidence in Peter as he expands his role within RumbleOn and joins our executive team,” said Chesrown of RumbleOn, which says it uses technology to simplify how dealers and consumers buy, sell, trade, or finance pre-owned vehicles through RumbleOn’s 100% online marketplace.

“I’m incredibly proud of the staggering growth we’ve seen and the world-class talent behind those results,’’ Levy said. “The RumbleOn team will continue to disrupt an outdated industry. Whether that’s through best-in-class technology, supply chain innovations, or through our unique distribution network, it’s a privilege to be on board for the ride.”
