Prior to assuming his role as chief executive officer in 2008, Greg Miller, the eldest son of the late Larry H. Miller, took on increasing levels of responsibility and filled a series of leadership positions during his 34 years of employment within the LHM Group. Roles included managing several multi-million dollar construction projects, serving as general manager to some of the company’s most successful auto dealerships, and overseeing the operation of the $100 million Miller Motorsports Park, one of the premiere race tracks in North America.

The Larry H. Miller Group of Companies began with a single automotive dealership, Larry H. Miller Toyota, in Murray, Utah on May 1, 1979. Since that time, the Larry H. Miller Group of Companies has grown to more than 80 businesses and properties operating in 46 states. These businesses fall into six primary areas: automotive, finance, insurance, real estate, sports and retail. Because of a strong commitment to the community, Larry H. Miller successfully added a collection of non-automotive businesses to the organization, including the Utah Jazz; MiLB Triple-A Salt Lake Bees; EnergySolutions Arena; Megaplex movie theatres throughout the state of Utah; Fanzz sports retail apparel stores; Prestige Financial; KJZZ-TV; 1280 The Zone Sports Network and more.

From the very beginning, Larry H. Miller had the philosophy: “Have a little fun, make a little money and take care of the customer.” This belief is what has motivated thousands of employees for decades and propelled a simple beginning in the automotive parts industry to one of the largest privately-owned companies in the western United States.
