Strong Volkswagen of Salt Lake City will host a 50th anniversary celebration starting at noon today at the company's new facility, 1070 S. Main.
Of 635 Volkswagen dealerships in the United States, only Strong Volkswagen and 10 others have been in operation since the company entered the U.S. market in 1955.
The company's first dealership, L.H. Strong Motors at 700 S. Main, was opened by current dealer principal Brad Strong's grandfather, L.H. Strong, in 1955.
