“The Marsh family spent five decades building something that matters to this community. Finding the right person to carry that forward was just as important as the transaction itself. Jeremy is exactly the right fit. He is invested in Northeast Arkansas in a way that goes beyond business, and we have no doubt the dealership will benefit from the energy and commitment the Osment family brings to every project they tackle. Haag Brown looks forward to assisting in the growth of this new endeavor,” said Jeff Armstrong with Haag Brown Commercial in the release.
Osment is a native of Trumann and the founder of the residential and commercial development company Osment Construction. Under Osment’s ownership, the dealership will be renovated, and more sales staff will be hired. The release added that Osment is working on pursuing a rider training program.
The dealership will be renamed to Osment’s Harley-Davidson of Jonesboro. It is located at 2715 Industrial Drive.
