ATLANTA – Expansion plans are heating up this summer for Go Auto Exchange, as the company announces the opening of its fourth location in Orlando on Aug.7. Though sharing land with Manheim Orlando, the new site is located off-premises and will have its own main office, cafeteria and reconditioning facilities. The newly refurbished location will be named Go Auto Exchange Orlando.
“Since establishing Go Auto Exchange last November, our buyer base and overall auction attendance has experienced tremendous growth,” said Tim Janego, president of Go Auto Exchange. “As Orlando is a key city for our dealer base, we wanted to bring our operation to them, offering convenient access to vehicle inventory and other auction services.”
Butch Herdegen, III has been selected as general manager of Go Auto Exchange Orlando. He joins the company from Manheim Palm Beach, where he has served as manager of dealer services since 2012. Herdegen has more than 10 years of experience in the auction business and has served in various leadership roles at Manheim and within the industry.
To celebrate the opening of its new location on Aug. 7, Go Auto Exchange will offer dealers 300 units for sale, early registration to save time and a “Money Machine,” where dealers will have an opportunity to grab money that can be used toward sale-day fees.
Located on 25 acres, Go Auto Exchange Orlando will offer three auction lanes and will host weekly afternoon sales on Thursdays at 4 p.m.
