Pine Brook, N.J. — CH Bus Sales has announced a new full-service motorcoach sales, maintenance, and repair facility. Located just 30 miles northwest of Manhattan, New York and about 25 miles northwest of Newark’s Liberty International Airport, the facility will offer sales of new and pre-owned coaches with a fully stocked retail parts center that can support and service all makes and models of motorcoaches.
“We are proud to be expanding into our fourth full-service facility as Temsa’s exclusive distributor,” shared Duane Geiger, executive vice president of sales & service. “This full service location is our first in the Northeast region and we are happy to offer our Temsa customers as well as other operators the superb maintenance and repair support that they have come to expect in our industry.”
Tony Mongiovi, vice president of sales & service in the Northeast, added that the staff of the new facility is comprised of veterans of the industry who understand the urgency associated with a coach being out of service, and stressed the new, strategically located facility is ideal to keep CH’s Northeast clients’ vehicles up and running. The CH Bus team has expanded their after-sales support in recent years as a response to the growing number of Temsa operators throughout the United States.
CH Bus Sales is the exclusive distributor of Temsa motorcoaches in the United States. CH Bus Sales is a privately owned corporation with an industry experienced ownership and management team. Temsa is a fully owned subsidiary of Sabanci Holding, the leading financial and industrial group in Turkey.

RMA President and CEO Robert Alexander (right) and VP of Business Development Art Miesemer (left)
Washington — RMA Worldwide Chauffeured Transportation was recently featured in business publication SmartCEO’s Best-Run Book 2017, a special edition that profiles more than 80 companies in the Mid-Atlantic region.
The company was honored at a book launch party in January where RMA President and CEO Robert Alexander and VP of Business Development Art Miesemer were on hand to accept their award.
According to SmartCEO, the book is a compilation of “the best business stories and ideas from the Mid-Atlantic’s best-run companies. In this book you will learn how these companies have honed their strategic vision, implemented processes, managed fast growth, perfected their brand and communications, honed their leadership development and talent acquisition strategies, crafted a customer-service mindset, and nurtured top corporate cultures. These firms have experienced consistent growth and are leading their industries. They have created lasting value in their communities and exemplify leadership, character and vision.”
In his profile, Alexander shared a story about a client for whom RMA had arranged travel in another city. Somewhere along the line, the communication broke down, and the couple—who was traveling with their small dog—was met with an irate chauffeur of the affiliate who was unaware of the furry companion. The couple took their business elsewhere—and RMA almost lost a client for life. On the return trip home—after agreeing to give RMA a second chance—the client was greeted by the RMA chauffeur, but so too was the pooch who was treated to personalized gourmet dog treats and an apology note saying that he was always welcome in their car. Alexander says that the couple was so touched by the company’s thoughtfulness that they ended up staying with the service.
The Best-Run Book is available online at goo.gl/88zOZD.
