ORLANDO, Fla. -

Ford's Vehicle Remarketing Department recently spotlighted 12 auctions for their exceptional performance as Automotive Remarketing Services Partners.

Receiving honors at the recent National Auto Auction Association conference, the following auctions were named ARS Partner Recognition Award Winners:

Manheim Pennsylvania
Manheim Mississippi
Brasher’s Salt Lake Auto Auction
ADESA Indianapolis
Manheim New York
Manheim Chicago
Manheim Detroit
Manheim Nashville
Brasher’s Sacramento Auto Auction
ADESA Boston
Manheim Georgia
ADESA Phoenix

Officials said in a statement, “Understanding that the ARS Program could not have achieved the tremendous success it has enjoyed without the full participation of its auction partners, Ford recognized those who went  ‘above and beyond’ in making 2012 the largest volume year in ARS history.”

Last month, the 500,000th ARS unit was sold at auction, so Ford and its auction partners have been holding a promotion of ARS this month.
