BUSINESS OF THE DISTINCTION: Ray Winnie Auto Sales celebrates 35 years in Greenville

Ray Winnie Auto Sales has been a fixture at the corner of Washington and Franklin streets for the past 35 years, selling a wide variety of used vehicles and running a successful vehicle rental service, the first in Greenville.

With the purchase of a new wrecker truck in 1964, Ray Winnie originally started “North End Shell Service” at 1114 N Lafayette St., now the site of El Jalapeno Mexican Restaurant.
