York Automotive was founded in Greencastle, IN by Robert A. York Sr. in 1987. He founded this company based on the premise that our customer is the foundation of our success. This family owned and operated business allowed the opportunity to grow into 6 locations serving Greencastle, Crawfordsville, Brazil, and Plainfield. Robert A. York Jr. and Nickolas C. York have carried on the family operation and created an opportunity to allow you to expand and grow your career in ways you would with a large corporation without losing the feel of working within a small, hometown operation. A note from our owners, “We feel so fortunate to be able to work with the people that we do, and we work hard to provide the best work environment and benefits to every single employee that walks through the doors.” We here at York Automotive continue what Bob York created in 1987 of “We’re Not #1, You Are!” We believe that each employee contributes directly to York Automotive’ s growth and success, and we hope you will take pride in being a member of our team.
