Following World War I Walter Sweeney became Cincinnati's first used car dealer operating several locations. Walter's automotive background helped to give Jake Sr. the foundation to begin building his own career. After 1945 he opened his first used car lot in downtown Cincinnati.
In 1956 Jake formed Jake Sweeney Auto Leasing and also established a lease by mail business. Little did anyone realize at the time but this was the birth of Auto Leasing in the United States.
By the late 60's, Jake had become Ohio's largest retail new car sales dealership. An opportunity to purchase a Chevrolet Dealership in a relatively newly developed area called Tri-County presented itself to Jake.
Again, Jake's sense of timing was remarkable. He made the purchase and Chevrolet launched into its' "Glory Years" of the seventies. The company was profitable from the beginning and has never looked back. The Tri-County area continued to develop and is now one of the most desirable locations in the state of Ohio. Not wanting to "rest on his laurels", Jake expanded in 1976 by acquiring Mazda and BMW franchises and operating them from the old Pontiac location at Galbraith and Vine in Hartwell until they relocated to Tri-County in 1987.
In July 1979, Jake purchased the Chrysler-Plymouth franchise in Tri-County, which rapidly became one of Ohio's largest volume Chrysler-Plymouth dealerships. Jake Sweeney Chrysler-Jeep also ranks as one of the top CSI dealerships for the Chrysler Corporation and has won numerous achievement awards in this area.
Although all of Jakes dealerships have grown and changed over these last sixty plus years his sons, daughters, managers and employees strive to follow Jakes core beliefs of high standards and excellence. Even though we have grown to over four hundred plus employees we are dedicated to you...without our customers of the past, present and future we don’t exist!
