DEALERSHIP HISTORY

In June of 1991, Dave Shoots opened a modest local used car dealership at the corner of King George Road and Elmwood Drive where he quickly earned a great reputation in Brantford for selling quality vehicles at a competitive price. 6 successful years later, Hyundai presented Dave with a franchise opportunity that he could not turn down.

The Hyundai dealership grew rapidly and moved up the road to its present location here at King George Road and Powerline Road in 2005. Now over 25 years later, Dave is very proud that his son Jeff Shoots has taken over the majority of the operations. Dave also takes pride in creating a business that is family-run and oriented as many of his family members work(ed) here. Like family, Dave attributes much of his success to his second family, the loyal staff that have been with him for many years. Some of Brantford Hyundai’s dedicated staff have been here for 16-26 years. 

Throughout the years, Dave’s community involvement was monumental and he continues to contribute and donate to various charities, groups, and causes. These include: Brant Community Health System Foundation, local youth sport teams, Northridge Golf Course, Brant United Way, Brantford Food Bank, Boy Scouts of Canada, Kids Race for Autism, and more! Closest to his heart (and lungs) is his immediate relationship with The Lung Association as Dave has contributed a generous amount to this non-profit organization over the years. Dave’s contributions to The Lung Association also include sponsoring the Spring Tulip campaigns, Phyllis Gretzky Golf Tournament, Walter Gretzky Street Hockey Tournament, and donations of sales from the dealership.

In November 2018, Brantford Hyundai had undergone major renovations with their primary goal in mind: continue to serve customers better and faster. The renovations were completed early 2020 and includes a modern state-of-the-art showroom that adopts Hyundai’s new global brand and image.
