Family Car Group is set to buy Moffitt Automotive in Louisiana in a deal that is expected to close this month, a source close to the transaction said.
Moffitt Automotive's dealerships are Audi Shreveport and Porsche Shreveport, and Moffitt Mazda and Moffitt Volkswagen, both in Bossier City, just outside Shreveport.
Family Car Group, of Dallas, owns Family Toyota of Arlington, along with Family Toyota of Burleson and Family Volkswagen Burleson, both in the suburb south of Fort Worth, Texas.
"The Moffitt family has built an incredible organization that perfectly aligns with ours, and we look forward to welcoming their employees and customers into our family," Skip Jabbar, Family Car Group owner, said in a statement.
A second generation of the Moffitt family operates the dealership group launched in 1964 by Fred Moffitt, who died in 2016. In 2020, Fred's daughter Susan Moffitt became the fourth woman to receive the Time Dealer of the Year award.
"We chose Family Car Group because of their operational excellence, and because they share our values, including a strong commitment to employees and meaningful community involvement," Susan Moffitt said in a statement.
