WIX received this honor for providing outstanding field support at all levels, including dealer sales calls, and for its exceptionally knowledgeable personnel.

“We work extremely hard to ensure our dealers and distributors have what they need to be successful,” said Mike Harvey, national sales manager for WIX. “But, it’s also WIX’s legacy to go above and beyond what’s expected and this award reflects that effort. We are exceptionally proud and look forward to growing our partnership with Bond Auto.”
