For the second year in a row, Vancouver, B.C.-based OpenRoad Auto Group has been named as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies. Recognized as the nation’s leading business awards program, Canada’s Best Managed Companies recognizes excellence in Canadian-owned and managed companies.
OpenRoad was a winner of Canada’s Best Managed Companies program in 2012 and requalified in 2013 to maintain its status as a Best Managed company. “Our greatest asset has always been our people. We believe that through employee development, we can continually find ways to better ourselves as an organization,” remarked Christian Chia, CEO of OpenRoad Auto Group. “Our slogan ‘Open to a better way’ represents our commitment to offering better guest experiences and finding better ways to do business.”
Each year, hundreds of private Canadian organizations compete for the Canada’s Best Managed Companies designation. The award selection process evaluates the calibre of management abilities and practices within a company.
OpenRoad is one of the fastest growing automotive groups in Canada, currently operating 11 dealerships and two collision centres. Another four dealerships are expected to open by the end of 2015, expanding the group’s lineup to a total of 14 import brands. Over the years, the organization has been recognized with numerous business awards, as well as a prestigious automotive industry award for outstanding business innovation.
