The Pohanka Story
The past, present, and future.
Frank was mechanically inclined and went back to New York City, where he read every book on automobiles in the city library. He became a car mechanic and eventually was hired by General Motors as a service rep. GM transferred him to a factory-owned Chevrolet dealership located in downtown Washington DC.
In 1919 Frank Pohanka opened his first dealership at Ward Place, in N.W. Washington DC,where he sold and serviced Chevrolets. He quickly established a reputation as a master mechanic and service consultant, and for thirty years called his company"Pohanka Service" to emphasize that fact.
In 1923 Frank Pohanka moved his dealership to 1126 20th Street, N.W. and became an Oldsmobile dealer. He converted a movie theater into a three car showroom and converted a Civil War era livery stable into a repair shop. After his death in 1958, his son, John Pohanka, became the dealer, and in 1967 relocated the dealership to the suburbs in Marlow Heights, MD. He soon started acquiring more franchises and locations.
Today, the Pohanka Automotive Group has locations in Capitol Heights, Maryland; Salisbury, Maryland; Chantilly, Virginia; Fredericksburg, Virginia; Stafford, Virginia, and Tomball, TX.
