Data Architect

We are proud to be part of a family-owned and operated tradition dating back to 1948, when Richard Fischer opened Suburban Motors as a single-point Oldsmobile dealership in Birmingham, MI. In April 2021, Suburban sold its dealership operations and non-dealership business operations remained under the sole direction of the Fischer family, and Suburban Automotive Services was born.

We have two main areas of our business within the automotive industry that complement each other. On one side , GLS NA specializes in vehicle management and event support, managing a fleet of over 90,000 vehicles and supporting over 1,100 automotive shows and events. With 18 locations across North America, GLS NA serves eight major automotive brands and has built a reputation for exceptional customer satisfaction and innovative solutions over more than 11 years. On the other side, Suburban Accessories focuses on the distribution of OEM accessories and parts. As the country's largest distributor of GM and Ford accessories, we serve authorized dealers and independent garages in the Midwest and Florida.
