Rochester Iron & Metal announced on Wednesday that the company has officially made a successful transition of their Logansport and Kokomo locations to Paul's Auto Yard.
Effective with the beginning of the year, the decision followed the purchase Rochester Iron & Metal made of all eleven Paul's Auto Yard locations in 2023.
The strategic move was made with the idea of Rochester Iron & Metal expanding their offerings and enhancing services to their valued customers.
CEO of Rochester Iron & Metal Jason Grube expressed enthusiasm about the
transition. He stated in a press release that with the addition of car and car part sales, the company intends to offer even better service than customers have already come to expect.
The transition is said to bring valuable oversight to both locations from Paul's Auto Yard CEO's Danielle Liss and Kim Casey.
Having a combined total of 55 years of experience in the metal recycling and used car parts industry, Liss and Casey plan to ensure seamless integration and continued excellence in customer service.
Reflecting on her extensive experience gained at Paul's Auto Yard Liss said that during her two decades she has taken on virtually every role imaginable for operations and management with the company.
Liss said that she was proud of how far Paul’s Auto Yard has expanded and improved over the decades and that she is even more excited about the growth and improvements coming from joining Rochester Iron & Metal.
Kim Casey, co-CEO of Paul's Auto Yard, also expressed her eagerness for the new
challenge. Casey said that being co-CEO of Paul's Auto Yard in a predominantly male industry has been one of her most rewarding achievements. Casey said she looks forward to continue growing as a leader in the industry.
Rochester Iron & Metal remains dedicated to continue providing exceptional value and sustainable solutions in the metal recycling and used car parts industry.
The company is confident that this transition will bring forth new opportunities,
growth, and improved services to the communities it serves.
Both locations will continue with normal business hours.
Paul’s Auto Yard Logansport and Paul’s Auto Yard Kokomo plan on providing updates on their Facebook pages as they begin offering their new products and services.
