At the Greater Washington Region Clean Cities Coalition’s Annual Awards Luncheon on October 14, Rob Smith accepted the “Clean Dealership of the Year” award on behalf of Fitzgerald Auto Malls. Fitzgerald Auto Malls was the first dealership group in North America to become ISO 14001 certified and is an EPA Green Power Leadership Club member. In 2019, the organization installed a one-acre solar canopy at its Gaithersburg location, the largest such array east of the Mississippi River. “This is a leap of faith for us,” Fitzgerald Auto Malls Founder and Chairman Jack Fitzgerald had said at the array’s unveiling ceremony. “We think it’s what our customers want, we know it’s what our political leaders want, let’s hope it works.” After two years in operation, Mr. Smith was proud to accept the award, as the investment has invariably paid off. WANADA sends its hearty congratulations to Rob Smith and the entire Fitzgerald Auto Malls organization for this prestigious honor.
