In 1998, AutohausAZ launched its website to expand its market beyond local wholesale customers. By 2004 the Company, pursuing limitless opportunities, refocused its website to reach a global retail market. From Internet sales in 1998 of $1,000 to forecasted sales in 2008 of $11,260,000+, AutohausAZ.com has not only survived, it has flourished, growing 200.8% in the last three years alone. They attribute this growth not only to expanding to a larger marketplace but to maintaining the highest level of friendly and professional customer service.
"We're always being asked how we're able to continue growing at such unbelievably high rates year after year, particularly in our current economy. I have to say that our biggest strength is that we focus on our customers and their needs always and we try to provide more than just a place to buy auto parts at AutohausAZ.com," said Carolyn Lefebvre, President/CEO of Autohaus Arizona.
"We provide our customers with valuable information on import cars (BMW, Mercedes Benz, just to name a few) and auto repair tips (tips to improve gas mileage, fuel pump and fuel injection repair, performing monthly car maintenance to keep auto repair costs down, saving money on brake repairs, etc), as well as give them a place to store information on their import car and its maintenance."
AutohausAZ.com and its fellow recipients will be honored on November 11 at the Phoenix Convention Center. The event celebrates the 3rd annual Arizona Companies to Watch Awards and is the only award focusing on businesses across Arizona, not just specific industries, painting a realistic picture of a true statewide economy. The Arizona Companies to Watch program was created to recognize and celebrate the contribution, innovation and energy of the wide variety of second-stage companies in the state. Companies considered must be privately owned, "second-stage" companies that have 10 to 100 employees, are concerned with issues of growth not survival and have not yet become large corporations.
