An extraordinary legacy of customer service, employee loyalty, and wonderful automobiles are the qualities that have allowed Jim Burke Automotive to set the standard for Birmingham automobile dealerships since the 1940s.   

In 1945, fresh from training pilots during World War II, Jim Burke, Sr. opened a Nash dealership in Birmingham. Seven years later, when Mr. Burke was awarded a Buick franchise, Jim Burke Automotive was on its way to decades of exciting expansion. Jim Burke, Jr. took over the reins of the company in 1976.   

Today the company has 13 franchises and employs more than 385 people. Those people - such as Jack Harris, service manager for 47 years, and the 40 other employees who have more than 20 years of service -  have created a powerful company that prizes both customer and employee loyalty.
