WE ARE HERE TO HELP….

Valley Eurotec Ltd was founded in 1993 by Ron Hannigan, Ron had recently left his position with Brian Jessel BMW dealer and ventured out on his own to start the legacy of Valley Eurotec Ltd. Valley Eurotec Ltd. a shop specializing in BMW and Mercedes-Benz went from a small two-man operation to medium to large size shop in the ensuing years. Ron built a business on ethics, quality and talent. He built a strong team of service writers, parts advisor, and mechanics many of whom are still with Valley Eurotec Ltd.

In January 2000 Ron hired a young man just finishing his last year of high school by the name of Derrick Lordon to help around the shop, sweeping and taking the garbage out. Ron soon learned that Derrick possessed that unique skill of understanding how things work and how to fix them. It wasn’t long after this Ron apprenticed Derrick and he began his journey into the automotive industry.

Derrick excelled as he learned about repairing cars, he enjoyed the mechanics of fixing a vehicle, but he loved the complexity of truly diagnosing technical issue that often arise in the European automotive world. BMW’s became his main focus brand; he completed his apprenticeship and continued his BMW training becoming a regular attendee of any training provided within North American and perfected his trade. He is a long-standing member of BIMRS, a non-profit collection of the smartest and brightest of today’s BMW specialists’ technicians.

In the coming years Ron decided it was time for himself and his wife to begin traveling the world and retiring, upon which a short conversation between Derrick and Ron went a little like this, Ron: “At some point I’m going to sell the shop and retire.” To which Derrick replied: “I’ve been thinking that someday I’d like to have my own shop.” Ron recognized another skill in his shop helper who had grown into his lead BMW technician, that Derrick had the drive, the skills, the knowledge, the desire and the energy of youth to be a great candidate to continue the success of the business he cared so deeply about.

So in October 2012, Derrick the boy who started as a shop helper, who became the lead BMW technician, became the Owner of Valley Eurotec Ltd.
