A New Chapter Begins: Taylor Automotive Becomes 100% Employee Owned

Today marks one of the most significant milestones in the history of Taylor Automotive Family.

After more than four decades of serving customers and communities across Northwest Ohio, Taylor Automotive is proud to announce its transition to a 100% employee owned company through an Employee Stock Ownership Plan, commonly known as an ESOP.

While the ownership structure is changing, the values that have guided Taylor Automotive since 1979 remain exactly the same. Our commitment to exceptional customer service, community involvement, and investing in our people continues to be at the heart of everything we do.

What Employee Ownership Means

Through the ESOP, more than 340 employees now share in the future success of the company. Employee ownership creates a stronger connection between individual contributions and the long term success of the organization.

It means the people who greet customers, service vehicles, support operations, and help drive the business forward every day now have an ownership stake in the company they help build.

Employee ownership encourages teamwork, accountability, and a shared commitment to excellence. When the company succeeds, employees have the opportunity to benefit from that success as well.

Strengthening the Taylor Automotive Culture

Taylor Automotive has always believed that great businesses are built by great people. This transition reinforces that belief by recognizing the dedication, hard work, and commitment of team members across every department and location.

The ESOP structure helps ensure that the company remains focused on its employees, customers, and communities while preserving the culture that has made Taylor Automotive successful for more than 45 years.

What Is Not Changing

As Taylor Automotive enters this new chapter, customers can expect the same trusted experience they have always known.

Our leadership remains in place.

Our commitment to customer service remains unchanged.

Our dedication to supporting local communities continues.

Our values remain the foundation of who we are.

The relationships we have built with customers, employees, and community partners will continue to guide us into the future.

Looking Ahead

This transition represents more than a change in ownership. It is an investment in the people who have helped make Taylor Automotive what it is today and in the generations of employees who will help shape its future.

We are grateful to every employee, customer, and community partner who has been part of this journey.

The future of Taylor Automotive has never been brighter, and now that future belongs to all of us.

Employee Owned. Locally Committed.

Thank you for being part of the Taylor Automotive Family.
