At the official opening of the new showrooms last Thursday morning (left) Mr. Tom St. John Barry, Cllr. Michael O'Higgins, deputy Mayor; Mr. Paddy Hayes,
Managing Director, Henry Ford and Son Ltd., Mrs. Mary Barry, Mr. Joe Curley, Mr. Michael Barry and Mr. Paddy Watters, Town Clerk.
Best Tom Barry's eldest son Michael, a very well known motor sport personality, is Sales Director of the Company, with his mother Mary Barry as the Company's secretary. Other directors are Martin Kearney, General Manager and Peter Gavin, Accountant. It's almost a cliche when you say that all com panies must put their customers first; but this is completely true with Higgins Garage Ltd. A com pletely redesigned workshop now incorporates the most modern engine equipment available. A diag nostic engine tuning device is certainly a unique invention in any busy garage -- this machine applied to a motor engine can quickly pin-point the exact fault. There is also a new reception and lounge area for customers. While their car is receiving immediate attention they can relax in this tastefully decorated room, read a magazine, enjoy a cup of coffee, and remain out of the cold while their car is being repaired. Electronic equipment plus an experienced and hard-working staff will ensure the success of this original and welcome development. Higgins Garage Ltd. are also national leaders in the field as one of the country's largest replacement parts wholesalers. Certainly they are the biggest in Connacht, and their sales achievements regularly win contests for the Parts Department staff. This year that Department won a free trip to New York for one lucky member! For over fifty years the West of Ireland has enjoyed excellent Ford service from Higgins Garage Ltd. This year will see some 600 new vehicles sold by the garage, and that doesn't count the numerous second hand Al cars. The last word is from Mr. Tom Barry: "Why have we been so successful? well, it can only be the service we offer. Our customers keep coming back, and I have noticed that even the younger generation are following their parents foot steps. You can't fool young people today: if you offer service people keep coming." Congratulations and Best Wishes to On the opening of your
