GM Financial named Manheim Pennsylvania as the winner of its Most Valuable Auction of the Year award and also named five regional 2020 Auction of the Year winners.

In selecting the recipients, GM Financial reviewed each of the company’s 51 auction partners’ performance in retention, operational metrics, pre-sale activities and overall auction operations.

The awards are part of GM Financial’s annual nationwide Auction of Excellence program, which recognized the highest-performing auction locations in 2020.

The regional Auction of the Year winners are ADESA Dallas in Hutchins, Texas; Manheim Denver in Aurora, Colo.; Manheim Milwaukee in Caledonia, Wisc.; Manheim Pennsylvania in Manheim, Pa.; and Rawls Auto Auction in Leesville, S.C.

Manheim Pennsylvania vice president and general manager Joey Hughes said it was an honor that GM Financial recognized the auction for delivering top customer service.

“I want to especially congratulate our employees for their dedication and commitment to delivering first-class service,” Hughes said in a news release. “We look forward to continuing our valued relationship with GM Financial for many years to come.”

“Despite a year of uncertainty, our auction partners rose to the occasion in 2020 to support GM Financial and our purchasing dealers,” said Bob Winn, senior vice president of remarketing solutions at GM Financial. “These top performers ensured operations continued as normally as possible by pivoting online, prioritizing buyer safety and keeping our vehicle sales top of mind. Congratulations to these top auctions of the year. This recognition is well earned.”
