Friendly Honda Wins the Prestigious Honda President’s Award
Setting the Standard for Excellence in the Hudson Valley
Friendly Honda in Poughkeepsie is proud to announce that we have earned the Honda President’s Award — the highest honor American Honda Motor Co. can grant to its dealerships. This award recognizes the top-performing Honda dealerships across the country for exceptional customer satisfaction, sales performance, and operational excellence.
Only a small percentage of Honda dealerships nationwide achieve this distinction each year, making it one of the most exclusive and respected awards in the automotive industry.
What Is the Honda President’s Award?
The Honda President’s Award was created to honor dealerships that demonstrate the highest levels of performance in key areas of the business, including:
- Customer satisfaction
- New-vehicle sales performance
- Service and parts excellence
- Employee training and facility standards
- Overall dealership operations
Only a limited number of Honda dealerships across the country earn this award each year, which makes it a powerful symbol of consistency, quality, and customer-focused performance.
Why This Award Matters to Our Customers
Winning the Honda President’s Award means Friendly Honda has met and exceeded Honda’s highest benchmarks in every part of the dealership experience.

How Dealerships Earn the President’s Award
To qualify for the Honda President’s Award, a dealership must excel in multiple categories throughout the entire year, not just for a single month or quarter. Honda evaluates:
- Customer satisfaction scores and feedback
- New-vehicle sales performance and volume
- Service department efficiency and quality
- Employee training completion and certification
- Facility appearance and operational standards
Only dealerships that consistently exceed expectations across all of these areas are selected for the Honda President’s Award.
