PG Motors celebrating 50 years in Prince George

Prince George Motors is celebrating 50 years in the northern capital.

Manager, Fred Nelson says 3 things have gone right for them since they’ve opened their doors.

“One is the customer, another is the product and the last one is our people. Somebody had a great vision when they started this way back in 1917 and since then we obviously have a good relationship with the people of Prince George.”

Nelson adds he couldn’t be more pleased with the community involvement the employees show each and every year.

“A lot of people invest time in the community either through sport or charitable organizations and we have great leaders in the community.”

During PG Motors 50 years in the city, they have been involved in events like the Relay for Life and the 100 Days of Giving hosted by Hell Yeah Prince George.
