Watkin Motors Ltd.
Sherry Beare's Company Details
Watkin Motors Ford was established as a dealership in 1915 and is the longest serving Ford Dealership in Canada. Joe Watkin was the original owner and laid the foundation for a promising future. Watkin and his three staff specialized in cars, trucks and tractor sales and would do whatever it took to put the deal together. It wasn't uncommon for sales staff to deliver a new vehicle to the customer at his ranch or farm, returning with two or three cows used as the down-payment.In 1962, Jack Blankley purchased the business from the Watkin family and three generations of Blankley's have run Watkin Motors Ford since then! Jack's son Don, better known as Budd, joined the business in 1966 and brother Bruce joined in 1976.Looking forward, Budd's son, Ross is now the Dealer Principal. Watkin Motors Ford is one of Vernon's largest employers, with a genuine family atmosphere as a large number of employees have been a part of the family for years. Friendly faces you can trust and most certainly recognize when you walk thru our doors!
