Wiki


Herb Chambers (Herbert G. Chambers) is owner and CEO of Herb Chambers Companies, a group of 46[1] car dealerships in the greater Boston MA area. A directory of Herb Chambers Car Dealerships lists their OEM brand portfolio in Massachusetts and New England.


Herb Chambers was born in Dorchester, Massachusetts and attended English High School of Boston. After completing his high school education, Herb Chambers then served four years in the United States Navy, acquiring rank E-5.

After getting out of the Navy, Chambers began working as a copy machine repairman in Cambridge, Massachusetts. By the time he was 22, he started his own copier distribution company that he eventually sold for $80 million.[2]

Chambers started a business with borrowed money from his parents. He fixed copy machines door-to-door.

Herb Chambers started his automotive business after purchasing a Cadillac dealership in New London, Connecticut, in 1985. His decision to purchase the business was based on his own poor buying experience at the dealership.[3] As Herb Chambers improved the operations of this first car dealership, he started the Herb Chambers Companies.

Herb Chambers currently lives in Old Lyme, Connecticut and Boston, and also has an exotic car collection.
