MURFREESBORO, Tenn. -

With industry recognition to announce and an expansion in planning, one auction group is celebrating its success.

Dealer's Auto Auction — a group of four wholesale auctions with locations in Alabama and Tennessee — this week announced that Dealer's Auto Auction of Murfreesboro has been recognized with the Emkay 100% Club Award for 2012. 

“This past year was a complete success for our team,” said DAA’s Stephanie Baker. “We know that 'The Choice' is not ours — it is our customers’ — and we are very appreciative of Emkay’s recognition of our team, led so well by our own Nikki McCoy.”

“On behalf of Dealer's Auto Auction of Murfreesboro we are grateful to be business partners with the Emkay team,” added DAA owner and president David Andrews. 

“We strive to exceed expectations with our clients and customers, and it was a great honor to receive this accolade from one of our top clients,” he said.

In a separate initiative the company said is meant to improve service to customers, DAA Murfreesboro announced it has purchased property adjacent to the auction on Old Fort Parkway, and has plans for expansion.

“Our plans to build a new reconditioning center and increase dealer parking will better serve our customers,” Baker said. “We are excited with our expansion, and look forward to another successful year of growth with our dealers and commercial accounts.”
