REMEMBER THE PAST... BERGEY'S SINCE 1924
 
June 2014
1924 was the year of the Ford Model T Touring, the first Presidential radio broadcast from the White House and the beginning of Bergey's legacy in the transportation industry.

In May of 1924, Norman L. Bergey opened Franconia Garage in Franconia, PA. Converted from a horse-shoeing shop, the 2-car auto repair garage gainfully employed 3 mechanics. Because of Norman's businessman's savvy and gentleman's code, Franconia Garage thrived, even during the Great Depression. Understanding the importance of family, Norman's sons became part owners of the business in 1956 and renamed the shop Bergey's Garage.

Throughout its 90-year history, Bergey's has remained a family-owned business. Although it has expanded with new products, services, locations and state-of-the-art technology, Bergey's foundations have and always will be at the core of the company.

Norman's drive for quality customer service, commitment to excellence and promise to always treat customers the way that he wanted to be treated are instilled in the very marrow of Bergey's.

BERGEY'S TRUCK CENTERS AWARDED HINO TRUCK FRANCHISE
 
September 2012
A brand new Hino medium-duty truck franchise officially opened for business at Bergey's Truck Centers this month. The Souderton franchise is Bergey's second location to join the country's growing network of more than 180 Hino dealers. 

"Since it entered the U.S. market in 1984, Hino's evolution really caught our attention," says Steve Rybacki, Bergey's medium duty truck manager. "Aside from being a member of the Toyota Group and America's fastest growing medium duty truck manufacturer, Hino has proven itself with several customer satisfaction awards from J.D. Power and Associates. The company also stands behind its products with one of the industry's best warranties. So we jumped at the chance to offer our customers a cut above in medium duty equipment." 

After establishing a strong customer base as a Hino dealer in Trenton, NJ, the decision was made to expand to Souderton (a suburb of Philadelphia). Bergey's newest franchise carries a full line of Hino medium-duty trucks backed by a knowledgeable and dedicated Hino sales staff. Customers have 24-hour access to an extensive Hino parts inventory with certified Hino technicians on site. Conveniently located off I-476 at the Lansdale exit, the new Hino franchise is also in a great position to help transient customers as they drive through the area. 

"We're fully equipped to maintain our customers' trucks as well as perform warranty work any time day or night," Rybacki says. "Around-the-clock service gives our customers an extra advantage out on the road. And now with locations in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, we can provide our customers with an even stronger support system whenever they need it - just another way Bergey's is 'Keeping Customers on the Road.'"

U.S. REPRESENTATIVE JIM GERLACH VISITS CONSHOHOCKEN TRUCK CENTER
 
July 2012
Ed Brown, Vice President of Commercial Truck Sales for Bergey's Truck Center (Mack, Volvo & Isuzu) in Conshohocken, PA, provided U. S. Rep. (R-PA) with a dealership tour on July 6th. Rep. Gerlach sponsored the Heavy Truck Tax Fairness Act of 2012 (H.R.4321) which would repeal the excise tax on heavy trucks and trailers sold at retail and increase the diesel fuel tax. Rep. Gerlach asked several questions including how truck dealers and their customers were dealing with rising diesel fuel prices and freight costs, whether interest in natural gas powered trucks was increasing, and if any local efforts were underway at community colleges to increase the number of service technicians. Also in attendance were Mark Stine, Executive Vice President of the Pennsylvania Automotive Association, Patrick Calpin from the HADA-ATD legislative office, dealership employees Rob Horner and Rick Ciesielka, and Steve O'Kane, President of A. Duie Pyle, a transportation and logistics provider, which is one of Bergey's largest customers.
