A message from Empire Automotive President Michael Brown

“Because the COVID pandemic limited our ability to hold public events, the Empire Automotive Group 2021 annual award dinner recognizing outstanding performance for 2020 had to be postponed. We kept waiting to see if there would be a safe time to schedule the event but, ultimately, we decided to cancel it for this year, and start plans for next year’s event. That said, we still want to recognize the efforts of those 2020 award winners. Please see the pages that follow for the Empire Automotive Group’s top performers in 2020 one of the most challenging years in the history of the automotive industry.”
