Todd Caputo

President, Todd Caputo Consulting

My father taught me to clean and detail cars at age five, and I spent my early years at the dealership, learning every position.

After college, I began my full-time career in automotive retail/wholesale as the General Manager of Sun Chevrolet, which I later acquired from my father in 2012.

Throughout the years, I have built strong leadership teams and grew the family’s business exponentially.

I acquired three declining new car dealerships, converting them into high-volume standalone independent used car dealerships with showrooms and fixed operations departments. Branding myself as “The Used Car King,” I increased our market share to annual revenues of $200+ million.

At the end of 2020, my three Used Car King dealerships and Sun Chevrolet were acquired by EchoPark, a Sonic Automotive Company. I joined the leadership team as the Director of Delivery Center Operations for EchoPark Automotive until May 2022.
