Founders started our ongoing commitment to community
The Legacy Award is on display in our sales department — a reminder of our ongoing commitment to the community as a family-owned business for more than 70 years.
We’re humbled to have received the honor earlier this month from the Mt. Pleasant Area Chamber of Commerce, and we consider it to be a symbol of how we continue to follow the lead of our founders, Harold and Robert Krapohl.
The two brothers from Bay City launched our dealership in downtown Mt. Pleasant in 1950. By 1951, Krapohl was a Chamber member, and Harold and Robert were supporting community efforts. Robert went on to serve a term as the Chamber president, and he had two terms as president of the Central Michigan Community Hospital board of directors.
Harold served a term as president of the Mt. Pleasant Lions club and was a United Fund drive chairman. Both men supported local causes with donations and were active with annual Red Cross campaigns.
Krapohl Ford & Lincoln continues to support local businesses and nonprofit efforts — not out of obligation, but because caring for the communities we serve is simply part of who we are. We thank the Mt. Pleasant Area Chamber of Commerce for this honor and for giving our entire team a reason to pause and reflect on the importance of maintaining our core beliefs.
