Consistency is what Troy-Alan Buick of Kittanning is known for.

For the third time in five years, the dealership was honored by General Motors with the Buick Dealer of the Year Award, which was only handed out to 22 Buick retailers nationwide in 2022 that meet the company’s qualifications.

Owner and dealer Alan Strezeski is proud of the team he works with, which involves every department from sales to those in the repair department.

“This year we were the only dealership in the state of Pennsylvania to receive this,” Strezeski said. “It wasn't all me. It was far from all me. It's the teamwork of the employees I have here.

“These kids are something special to me. They really are.”

Troy-Alan Buick has delivered over 200 new Buicks a year and is on pace to deliver over 300 during 2023.

Christine Sepich, executive manager and daughter of Strezeski, explained why she believes their dealership’s sales numbers are above most.

“We have the highest retail sales index probably in the state of Pennsylvania,” Sepich said. “People are also driving over an hour to buy a car off us.

“We are not selling cars, we are selling safety. Selling that is our No. 1 goal.”

Angela Krejocic is one of the driving forces behind the Kittanning Troy-Alan dealership sales team and she was honored as the No. 2 Buick Sales Representative in the United States during 2022, out of a field of 15,230 consultants.

“We are elevating everything we do at Buick and GMC,” said Duncan Aldred, global vice president at Buick and GMC. “Our Dealer of the Year winners represent a group of industry leaders that are helping us to make tremendous gains in sales, market share and customer experience. We are proud to celebrate those dealers who have risen to every challenge of the past year to prove that they are the best of the best. We sincerely appreciate and applaud the entire dealership team.”
