Automotive Dealerships & Service Centres
Sherwood Dodge is one of Canada’s largest single-location Dodge dealerships, operating a high-volume, customer-facing automotive facility that supports vehicle sales, service, parts, and administrative functions under one roof.
The facility includes expansive showroom space, high-activity service bays, parts and storage areas, and supporting operational spaces designed to accommodate significant daily traffic from both customers and service operations. Extended operating hours, intensive equipment use, and a strong emphasis on customer experience create a demanding operational environment where lighting performance, energy use, and facility reliability play a critical role in day-to-day operations.
Managing energy and facility performance within a dealership of this scale requires a focused, site-specific approach that balances operational intensity, brand standards, and long-term investment considerations within a single, complex asset.
