Brian August (2nd Generation)

Dealer Principal
My father Archie August started Kelowna Motors in 1945 always strived for customer service and always treated the customer as a part of our family, and to this day I believe in the same way of business  without our loyal customers and our superb customer service we would not be here today. My name is Brian August and I started out cleaning and washing cars, then moved into sales while going to college. I then slowly moved my way up to working hand in hand with my father, learning how to treat our customers the way we like to be treated ourselves. I would like to personally invite you to visit us at Kelowna Motors for Mazda and experience the kind of service our family takes pride in providing.

I pride myself in the excellent customer service which we provide to not only our existing customer's, but to every potential customer who pays a visit to our dealership.
