Metcalfe's Garage Ltd. has won the highest honour that the Ford of Canada presents to its dealerships.

Owner and general manager Neil Metcalfe explains what it means.

"It's the Ford Presidents Award," says Metcalfe. "It's based on customer satisfaction -- what our customers tell Ford on their sales and service experience with us. They take the top dealers in the country. I don't know the exact number for sure, but I think it's around 60 of about 480 dealers."

He notes it's quite exciting to win the award for the eleventh consecutive year.

"I'm just so, so proud of our entire team on the friendly personalized service they provide day in and day out to our customers," adds Metcalfe. "We've been a Ford dealer in Treherne since 1915 and in business since 1900, selling and servicing Fords. I'm a fifth-generation owner, owned and operated."

He says each and every team member is fully dedicated to providing the personalized experience and friendly atmosphere the dealership enjoys, both at work and in their personal lives.

Metcalfe adds the awards celebrations will hopefully be presented after COVID restrictions lift.

In addition, the company has donated up to $1,000 to four local organizations in celebration.
