The Family Business Continues to Grow

Franchesca Doty, daughter of Greg and Julie Runde has joined the family business that has been around since 1927. She will be working with the office staff and managing Accounts Payable.

Hometown: East Dubuque, IL

Favorite Food: I don’t really have a favorite food, I like to try new foods and I love
to cook so it’s always fun to experiment with different recipes.

Franchesca, her husband Derek, and their dog Baxter.

What is your work background in the Auto Industry?: I’ve been around the auto industry my whole life, but I’ve never held a full time job here so I’m excited to get work with my family and learn the family business!

Pets: A dog named Baxter.

What is your Favorite vehicle?: My favorite vehicle is probably the Chevy Tahoe.

What you like to do in your spare time?: I like to read, cook, and spend time with my friends and family. We also started a garden last spring so I’m excited to work on that again this year!

What you are most excited about with working at Runde?: I’m most excited about being a part of the family business and learning all the ins and outs of it. It’s also fun to get to check out the new vehicles!
