History The DeSimone family has been in business in Southern New Jersey for over 40 years. Michael's father, Tony DeSimone, became the owner of a Cadillac dealership on a small corner lot in Camden. With a love for everything involving small business, Tony attributed his success to "hard work, luck, a good attitude, and timing." Under the guise of his fathers values, Mike DeSimone took over the auto dealerships in 1988, leading the business to become a widely successful landmark that would later be acquired by Holman Enterprises in 2007. By driving the success of his family's business from growth to exit, Michael DeSimone has gained a deep understanding of what it means to be an entrepreneur.More
