Subaru of America, Inc. (SOA) today announced W&L Subaru, located in Northumberland, PA, as the winner of the 2025 Subaru Love Promise Retailer of the Year Award, recognizing the retailer for over 50 years of continuously supporting their local community. The award is presented annually to the Subaru retailer who has made a significant commitment to their customers and their community throughout the year, going above and beyond in exemplifying the Subaru Love Promise®.

Andy Long, Owner of W&L Subaru: “We have built a legacy thanks to our team and the strong customer relationships that enable us to impact people’s lives, giving back to the community in ways that my dad could have only dreamed of fifty-plus years ago. Being recognized as the Subaru Love Promise Retailer of the Year is an achievement that carries meaning not only for W&L Subaru, but for the organizations and the individuals who inspire us to reach our potential day in and day out.”

The family automotive group was established in 1965, and W&L Subaru opened in 1972 with a focus on taking care of people and meeting challenges with a positive outlook. Since the inception of the Subaru Love Promise program, W&L has been a Love Promise and Community Commitment Gold Award winner, supporting a variety of local charities and community organizations. Over the last five years, W&L has donated over $800,000 to local charities and causes, with a distinctly strong connection to the Children’s Miracle Network at Geisinger Janet Weis Children's Hospital and the Haven Ministry Center community shelter. This commitment is reinforced in W&L’s dedication to setting the bar as a Love Promise Customer and Community Commitment Award winner from the program's inception and stands tall alongside the retailer’s devotion to customer service, always going above and beyond to meet the needs of Subaru owners.
