Employee Spotlight

Top Shop Challenge: What are a couple of things you'd like to highlight that happened last month?

Many staff fell victim to the season’s virus and challenges with shop equipment going down for repairs had the year off to a bleak start. January is also historically a slower month in the industry. However, when it was all said and done, our Service Department ended the month with the second-best month in the store’s history! This is testament to the culture we have instilled for Town Toyotas Service Team!!

Top Shop Challenge: How are you planning to support your team’s professional development in 2025?

Town Toyota is dedicated to the growth and development of all Service staff. Technicians continue growth whether utilizing our in-house training program, ASE accreditations, or Toyota ILT courses to continue certifications they would like to obtain to advance in the careers, all at zero cost to the technician.
