Riechers Tire and Auto celebrates 75 years of business this year. The business launched in 1939 as Fred and Anna Riechers opened a service station in Washington, Mo.
Some major milestones for the business include building an automatic car wash in the ’60s, a convenience store in the early ’90s and a second location in 2009.
For the past 75 years, the business has stayed within the Riechers’ family. Currently, Matt and Kevin, fourth generation, lead the operation. The dealership plans to host an open house for the public on June 7 in honor of the anniversary.
