Norman Hardy Bio
Mr. Norman Hardy has been an entrepreneur and a leader in his community for over twenty years. At the age of 22 he began his own construction and concrete business which employed up to 20 employees. In just a few short years, his company became the leading concrete company in the Portland, OR and surrounding area. Norman owned and operated this business until 2007 when he decided to sell it due to the decline in the home building industry.
Mr. Hardy’s family was involved in the auto industry for many years and in 2008, Mr. Hardy teamed up with his brother and father to start their own auto auction company. This startup company set out to wholesale cars to car dealerships throughout the Northwest and beyond. With the help of Norm’s talents, which include his strengths with people, contacts and ability to work tirelessly to accomplish results, this auto auction company now generates up to $150 million in annual revenues.
Mr. Hardy’s responsibilities include overseeing the day-to-day operations necessary to keep their weekly auctions running smoothly. This includes interacting with the dealerships, coordinating the in and out flow of the cars to their weekly auction, and overseeing the over 100 employees needed to operate this successful business. In just six years, he helped grow the company from an unknown business to one that currently works with up to 4,000 auto dealerships.
Mr. Hardy is active in his church, loves spending time outdoors with his wife and three boys. Whether it’s golfing on business outings, riding dirt bikes on the weekends with his kids or taking them to baseball practice, he is always sure to be making a positive impact in the community.
The Company welcomes Norman Hardy to its board of directors and intends to leverage this opportunity to help gain market share in the financial services and credit services industry thru the auto dealerships.
