The Berge Group was founded and is operated primarily for the purpose of delivering quality products and service to our customers and to provide jobs and job security for our employees, as well as for the benefit of the community. Our commitment in each location was made only after determining the standards and quality of the products and services, which could be furnished to the public. The Berge Group experiences very little attrition with its top managers. And that says a lot to our customers. The Berge Group actively supports training and management development programs for all its employees. This yields better customer service and friendlier staff. We have managers on board who are dedicated to the principles of the organization, many of who have been with Brent Berge (Owner) for over 30 years.
It is our personal commitment to see that your experience with any of our dealerships is a positive one. We sell cars and trucks today in the same "Berge Family" way as when we started in business - one at a time, with the personal respect and the individual attention you deserve.
As we get to know you better, we look forward to building a long lasting relationship to better suit your needs. Whether it be with a new or used purchase, or servicing your vehicle to keep it healthy and on the road, we hope we can take care of you for years to come.
