About Myers
Myers Automotive Group is all about community. In Ottawa and Eastern Ontario, the people on our team are your friends and neighbours. Our kids go to school together, play sports together, and succeed together. We sit on parents’ councils, volunteer alongside you, and work to make good things happen. We sponsor local teams and charitable events because we are part of the communities we serve.
We stand behind a solid reputation built the “hard way”: by earning trust one relationship at a time, generation after generation. From our founder to Hank Mews in 1975, and then to his sons Harry and Rob in 2003, each leader of Myers Automotive Group has shown an unwavering commitment to the communities we call home. That dedication has fueled our growth into a family-owned automotive group with 18 dealerships and 3 CARSTAR collision centres, employing over 1,100 team members across Eastern Ontario.
As we proudly expand into Kingston, our values remain the same—local roots, meaningful relationships, and a long-term commitment to the people we serve.
