Next month, Sanford Auto Dealers Exchange has a sale on tap that may help dealers not only shore up their used inventory, but aid in their holiday shopping, as well.

On Dec. 18, SADE is hosting a 2,000-vehicle sale that will also include $50,000 in gifts for customers.

The two grand prizes are a 1987 and a 1993 Chevrolet Corvette convertible.

“We enjoy creating a holiday spirit here at Sanford Auto Dealers Exchange and showing our dealers how much we appreciate their business,” said Jeff Brody, SADE’s vice president.

Expanding on what the auction offers year-round, SADE general manger Joe Killory said: “We understand that achieving success in life and in business is a lot like putting the pieces of a puzzle together. The great thing about puzzles is that there is always a solution. We help dealers find those solutions.”

Offering his perspective, SADE president Mike Tumminello pointed out that even in a challenging economy, transportation needs remain important.

“We work closely with dealers to help managers and owners increase the value of their organizations and grow their enterprises through our auction consignment,” Tumminello said.
