Honda Green Dealer Recognition Program

We Are Gold!

In January 2020, we were awarded Silver status in the Honda Green Dealer Recognition Program by reducing our energy consumption by 10%.

In November 2021, we were awarded Gold status by reducing our energy consumption by a whopping 30%!

Only 11 Honda dealerships in Canada (out of 238) have received Gold status.

Moving the Needle

Honda's commitment to the environment extends well beyond fuel-efficient vehicles. The Green Dealer Program helps Honda dealers reduce the environmental impact of their operations and lower their energy costs. With the Green Dealer Recognition Award, Honda puts the spotlight on dealers who go the extra mile. It's another important step on the road to Blue Skies for our Children.
