Detroit-based Feldman Automotive Group was formed in
2008 by owner, chairman, and CEO Jay Feldman. In 2013,
he rebranded his various stores as "Feldman" dealerships
to create a consistent, recognizable brand. In 2018,
Feldman Automotive achieved record sales, selling 26,000
vehicles for $918 million in revenue. In 2019, the group
set another new sales record of almost 28,000 vehicles
sold, bringing in $1 billion and 50 million in revenue.
Jay started selling cars at age 15 at his dad's Chevrolet
store in Milford, Michigan, and by age 25, he owned
his first dealership. Starting with one small store
in 1992, he grew the business on his own through a
combination of strategic acquisitions and partnerships.
Feldman Automotive today employs more than 1,000
employees. The fast-growing group includes multiple
rooftops: six Chevrolet stores, along with separate stores
for Chrysler-Jeep-Dodge-Ram, Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis.
Most notably, Feldman Automotive recently partnered
with movie star and businessman Mark Wahlberg to
launch Mark Wahlberg Chevrolet in Columbus, Ohio,
at the former Bobby Layman Chevrolet location.
