Built on Local Trust & Relationships
Word gets around quickly in Appalachia, and around here, treating customers well is the only way a dealership lasts a century. Our customers are the same neighbors we see in town, the families we sit next to at high school football games, and the coworkers of our spouses and kids. That kind of closeness rules out shortcuts. It also means we measure success less by what happens at the point of sale and more by whether you come back for future services or vehicles.
Proud Supporters of Agriculture & FFA
Farming has shaped southeastern Ohio for generations, and the families keeping it alive carry a lot of what makes this region special. Hugh White Honda Athens is proud to stand with area farmers and the FFA members, building the skills to follow in their footsteps. Choosing our dealership means supporting a local business that stays close to the rural roots and traditions of Appalachia.
Connected to Education, Athletics, & Local Leadership
Supporting education runs through everything we do. Our involvement reaches from K-12 classrooms across southeastern Ohio all the way through Ohio University, because stronger schools today shape the leaders, professionals, and trades we’ll rely on tomorrow. As a Honda dealership sitting in one of the best-known college towns in the state, we take pride in being part of the Bobcat family and supporting the students, educators, and organizations that make Athens a true hub for learning and future success.
Our work with area high schools reaches more than 23 southeastern Ohio schools through the Player of the Game program, which recognizes student-athletes for the practice and hustle that do not always make the box score. At Athens High School, we cover student admission for every athletic event so classmates can fill the bleachers and cheer one another on. We also stepped up as a major sponsor of Federal Hocking Schools, helping fund signature event nights for each sport throughout the year.
Additional support has gone toward replacing the gymnasium mats at Miller High School, sponsoring athletic boosters across the region, and backing recreational teams in a variety of sports. Rounding out our school involvement, we’re a proud major sponsor of the Tri-County Career Center car show, a standout event that puts students in the auto body and mechanics programs front and center as they put their training to work.
