CONANT AUTO RETAIL GROUP

The Conant Auto Retail Group is among the largest and fastest growing privately owned auto groups in the US. It's present success, is however, built on modest beginnings and on values that have kept the focus of the company since it began.

Norm Reeves Motorcycles was established in December 1955. This first location was in Bellflower, California. In 1959, Honda Motorcycles were introduced into the United States. Norm Reeves was appointed as the 7th authorized Honda Motorcycle Dealer on May 11, 1961 and consistently remained one of the top ten motorcycle dealerships until the last of the dealerships were sold on November 14, 1978 Norman K. Reeves passed away on March 24, 1973. His widow Donna L. Reeves became President of the Company.

Ground was broken at the Cerritos Auto Square location in March 1983 and the Grand Opening was held on October 21, 1983. In January 1984 the company to was fortunate to hire a young, enthusiastic salesperson from Wisconsin by the name of David Conant. A couple of years later, Mr. Conant was promoted to Sales Director. Soon thereafter, he was promoted to Vice President and General Manager. His values, work ethic and performance record afforded Mr. Conant the opportunity to buy into the company in 1989.

Mr. Conant and his management team grew the business over 400% in 4 years. In 1991, the Superstore became the #1 Honda Dealership Worldwide! The Superstore has held this title every year since and is considered an industry leader among all auto brands throughout the United States.
