Lynnwood

LYNNWOOD — A century-old New Jersey-based company is the new owner of a Land Rover dealership in Lynnwood.

Holman, an automotive services firm based in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, has acquired Land Rover Lynnwood from Fields Auto Group.

The dealership, formerly known as Land Rover Seattle, is located at 19910 Poplar Way. It offers new and used vehicles.

The former owner, Florida-based Fields Auto Group, operates dealerships in Washington, Illinois, Wisconsin, Florida and North Carolina.

The terms of the deal were not disclosed.

“We are thrilled to welcome Land Rover Lynnwood to the Holman family of dealerships,” Holman’s Senior Vice President of Dealership Operations Jaymie Hampson said in a statement. “We look forward to delivering an exceptional customer experience that represents our Holman values and Land Rover’s iconic brand.”

Holman operates Land Rover dealerships in California, Colorado and North Carolina.

Holman was founded in 1924 as a single Ford dealership in New Jersey.

Today, it is one of the largest family-owned automotive service companies in North America. The company employs nearly 9,000 workers, including in the United Kingdom and Germany.

In addition to automotive sales, its service portfolio includes fleet management and leasing, commercial vehicle equipment manufacturing and logistics services.

With the purchase of Land Rover Lynnwood, Holman’s retail business now includes 59 dealerships and 34 brands.
