MARLOW IN THE COMMUNITY
As a local family-owned and woman-operated business, the dealerships of the Marlow Automotive Group have strong ties to the communities in which we operate. As one of the area’s only locally-owned dealership groups, you will frequently find our owners and staff at local school, church, and community events. The result is convenience, increased accountability, and a strong commitment to our customers and community.
After All, We Will Meet Again, And When We Do, We Want W Everyone To Feel Good About The Business And Community We Are Building Together.
A Note to Marlow Customers
To All Our Valued Customers
With over 73 years’ history serving our community, we know the valuable role we play in supporting the people who protect and keep our community strong and healthy. At Marlow, we are taking active steps to ensure that we will be open, ready, and available to continue to service our customers during this time.
We’ve asked our team to think creatively about how we can continue to support our community while supporting each other. And we have taken proactive steps to protect our employees and customers. This includes adding measures to help prevent the spread of germs in our building, including, but not limited to, extra cleaning, use of gloves where appropriate, and the installation of extra hand sanitizing stations throughout our stores.
We have also taken steps to ensure that your visits to us are quick and efficient, so that you can spend less time at our dealership and more time where you need to be. For example, while schools are closed in the State of Virginia, we will be offering our service customers free vehicle pick-up and delivery for vehicles within 15 miles of our dealership…READ MORE
