These days, so many of the things we buy are produced in large factories, often overseas. And so many of the businesses in our community are part of a huge corporate behemoth. Since we first opened our doors in 1979, Kenny Hawkins Automotive has been locally owned and operated. When you “shop local” a much larger percentage of the money you spend stays right here in our community.
Kenny Hawkins founded and incorporated this business in 1979 out of a passion for automobiles and love of working with people. Thirty years later, the business is still a family operated shop. Today, Kenny’s brother Gary and his oldest son Chris -- who share his passion for cars -- are an integral part of the staff. Because of the low turnover, many of the employees have become like family. Several technicians have been with the company over 25 years.
We care about the community where we live and work. We are long time members of the Porsche Club and Viper Club of America.
We are also proud sponsors of West Raleigh Little League Baseball for more than 15 years.
