This longtime St. Louis-based JKR client is experiencing a year for the record books in every store; and with each of its four automotive brands. “The number of milestones the Suntrup group has eclipsed in 2015 has been monumental,” said Richard Brauns, Senior Partner at JKR and Account Executive for the Suntrup account.
