Hamilton Honda Celebrates President’s Award With Employee Luncheon

June 24, 2014 - PRLog -- To celebrate earning its third Honda President’s Award in just five years of being in business, Hamilton Honda recently hosted a luncheon for its entire staff. Team members from sales, service, support and finance enjoyed an on-site barbecue, including chicken, ribs, corn and a variety of salads.

Co-owners Mike Saporito and former New York Giants legend Jessie Armstead gave the staff a warm welcome followed by a congratulatory speech. In addition to the Hamilton Honda staff, local representatives from American Honda joined the festivities, including Zone Manager Sam Dolente, District Manager Tom Sterling and District Parts and Service Manager Andy McGowen.

The President’s Award is presented annually to only the top 15 percent of Honda dealerships nationwide. It is the most coveted honor that the manufacturer can grant to its dealerships and is awarded to “top-performing dealerships in the area of sales, customer treatment, training, business management, service retention and facilities,” according to Honda. As required, all of Hamilton’s sales associates are current on their Honda product and process tests. Additionally, the dealership received a customer service index score above the district average and was profitable for year.

Hamilton Honda had a monumental 2013, finishing the year as the 16th-ranked Honda dealer in the U.S. after selling 4,200 new Honda vehicles. Additionally, the dealership sold 532 vehicles in August and set an all-time district record. It also marked the first time a dealership in that district sold over 500 vehicles.
