The Pamby family offers their sincere gratitude to the Ridgefield community. Serving generations for 75 years as a family-run company has been a pleasure for the dealership's team, evidenced by their community involvement and dedication to their customers.
That next-generation ingenuity and trust are few and far between when it comes to small businesses, but is the reality of the Pambianchis, third generation owners of Pamby Motors.
The business was passed down to Pamby's current owners, brothers John, Mike, and Fred, from their father Matty and Uncle Harry. In addition to the main dealership, they also own Pamby Auto Body Shop and Pamby Towing.
"We're now selling cars to the grandkids of some of our first customers," Fred stated.
Sons of the owners, Tim, Mike and Andy, make up Pamby's management. All three of them also serve in the Ridgefield Fire Department, and have kids of their own who are all immersed in Ridgefield's schools and local activities.
"We don't just own the business," Tim said. "We actually live it and are here every day." Their employees stay for the long haul too, most of them sticking around for 20, 25, and 30 years. "What can I say, we make it fun around here," John commented.
"We give our customers that sense of familiarity," Mike remarked. "It's not customer 426 we're helping out. It's Mrs. Jones coming in telling us about her kid's school play."
Like John said, "Here's to 75 more years" of serving Ridgefield they've called home forever.
