Assurant, a global protection company, has partnered with Ciocca Automotive, which operates 54 dealerships in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, to provide a range of vehicle protection products and operational support.
This collaboration includes in-dealership training, compliance assistance, and helps Ciocca improve its per vehicle retail.
The move aims to support Ciocca’s growth and enhance customer experience.
Joe Amendola, VP Business Development & Strategy, Assurant Dealer Services, said, “Ciocca Automotive is a top-notch organization with a customer-centric, growth-focused company mindset. We look forward to being Ciocca’s performance development partner, giving their customers peace-of-mind with industry-leading vehicle protection products.”
Mark Harrold, CEO, Ciocca Automotive, said, “We’re already seeing the positive effects of working with Assurant. We appreciate Assurant’s consultative approach in helping us identify and establish the appropriate participation model aligned with our organizational needs; that will help fuel our growth plans.”
Christopher Sechrist, president of Ciocca Automotive, said, “We knew Assurant had some of the best protection products in the industry, and that was quickly confirmed when our PVR [Per Vehicle Retail] went up within the span of a few short months. Beyond those products, we’re taking advantage of their in-dealership development expertise, getting critical compliance support, and improving training throughout our stores with the help of the Assurant team.”
