Kansas City Independent Auto Auction was established in 1978 and was previously known as P
& S Auto Auction and Kansas Auto Auction. The original auction
was located in
Elwood, KS
and operated in that location for twenty-nine years.
Auction
owners, Gregg Boswell and Doug Doll, have more than forty-five years
combined auto auction experience. Both came through the auction
ranks working in various departments, learning all aspects of the
industry. Under their direction the auction saw tremendous growth.
It grew from selling seventy-five cars per week to selling two
hundred seventy-five cars per week. Meanwhile, the facility grew
from five to twenty-three acres. Eventually, the auction outgrew its
location and knew it was time to move forward.
In
response to the rising demand for its services, the auction made a
land purchase in
Kansas City
,
MO
in 2006 and began the process of constructing a state of the art
facility. Construction began in October of 2007, taking nine months
to complete. KCI welcomed customers to a long-awaited
opening of their new facility in July of 2008. Shortly after its
opening, Bob McConkey Jr purchased ownership in KCI.
With his extensive background and wholesale auto auction experience,
Bob is a tremendous asset and the auction will continue to prosper
under his direction.
Kansas City Independent Auto Auction
continues to expand to serve growing sales and
services. We continue to improve facilities and increase services,
including the introduction of AuctionPipeline Internet Sales. Currently, auction
officials are awaiting the grand opening of their brand-new 12,000
square-foot reconditioning facility.
