BUSINESS MATTERS: Midland Ford Lincoln puts customers, community first
James and Chad Wilson own Midland Ford Lincoln, an automobile dealership located at 500 Joe Mann Blvd. The dealership includes new and pre-owned vehicle sales, automotive maintenance and repair, mobile service and other transportation solutions. Since moving from its former location on S. Saginaw Road to Joe Mann Boulevard in 2015, the business has continued to grow — and is preparing for another expansion. On Saturday, Oct. 3, Midland Ford Lincoln will host an anniversary party from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. to celebrate 40 years in the community. They will be offering food and giveaways along with deals on both new and pre-owned vehicles. What inspired you to start your business? When I first started in sales, I realized helping customers was my passion. My sons were young, and I wanted to work for myself instead of working for people who didn’t share my vision. I felt the culture in Midland aligned with the culture I wanted to create. How has your business evolved since it was founded? We started in a small dealership on Saginaw Road. Through our dedication to providing customer-focused transportation solutions, we eventually outgrew that location and moved to our new dealership in 2015. Vehicles
