Following the sale, Hendrixson, Sr. commented, “After 42 years in the automotive business, I was ready to move to the next phase of my life. After seeing an ad in Automotive News for Performance Brokerage Services, I reached out to the company, and to my surprise, I was talking to Jason Stopnitzky, the Co-Founder. Talk about making a good first impression. He put me in contact with the Northeast Partner, Gershon Rosenzweig, who was the ultimate professional, and walked me through a process I was quite unfamiliar with. There was never a time that I was unable to get an answer to a question or have someone return a call. It is a very complex and complicated process when unwinding and selling a business. Thank goodness I made the right decision when I reached out to Performance Brokerage Services. They were with me right at the very end, sitting at the closing table. I would also like to say a special thank you to Les Chayo for all his help and legal advice.”
Over the last 5 years, Performance Brokerage Services has advised on the sale of over 300 dealerships, making it the highest volume dealership brokerage firm in North America. In 2021, the company consummated 72 transactions, marking a record-breaking year. This transaction was exclusively facilitated by Gershon Rosenzweig and Matt Wilkins of the Northeast Office of Performance Brokerage Services. Wilkins shared, “We are fortunate to have worked with truly first-class buyers and sellers on this transaction. The Hendrixsons have been a staple in Newark and have always put their customers and employees first. In their final sale, they continued that tradition by bringing in i.g. Burton to continue their legacy. Charles Burton and MJ Lofland were true to their word from beginning to end and run an amazing operation. They were always one step ahead and helped bring the deal to a swift and clean closing. We look forward to working with Charles and MJ again as they continue to grow and wish them success with their new store.”
