About Us
Hello, and welcome to Car Dealer Depot, where we offer the largest selection of dealer-specific products, business services, and promotional products to automotive retailers Nationwide.
My name is Joe Hess and I started the business in 2000. I have spent the majority of my career in the automotive industry having worked at NAPA Auto Parts, AutoNation, Credit Acceptance, and now Car Dealer Depot. We are headquartered in my native South Florida, where I reside with my wife of 17 years, our two teenage boys, and our yellow lab.
The past few years have presented challenges to our industry we have not seen before. As the impact from those challenges persist into 2022, we are left to wonder when they may subside. But through it all, know this - on behalf of myself and my team, we have survived and are working hard and working smart to navigate the supply chain issues to continue to provide the quality products you expect, when you need them, at unbelievable prices!
To our existing customers who stood together with us through the mess – THANK YOU for your continued support! To the rest of you – thank you in advance for the opportunity to earn your business. LET’s GO!
Sincerely,
Joe
