Celebrating One Year of Serving the Sheboygan Community

As we celebrate our first anniversary this July, we’re taking the opportunity to reflect on an incredible year made possible by one thing above all else, the trust of our customers and the support of the Sheboygan community.

In just twelve months, more than 541 families and drivers chose Van Horn Kia for their next vehicle, setting a new dealership record and surpassing the previous high of 390 new Kia sales. While we’re proud of that milestone, what it truly represents is the number of people who trusted us to help them through one of life’s biggest purchases.

“Our first year has never been about chasing numbers,” said John Heal, General Manager of Van Horn Kia of Sheboygan. “It’s been about earning the trust of our customers every single day. Whether someone is buying their first vehicle, bringing their Kia in for service, or simply stopping in with questions, we want every person to leave knowing they were treated with honesty, respect, and genuine care. The response from our community has been incredible, and we’re grateful to be part of it.”

That commitment to customer care has also been recognized throughout the automotive industry. During our first year, Van Horn Kia earned several notable achievements, including being named a CARFAX Top-Rated Dealer, receiving Kia’s 2025 Silver Elite Service Award, and winning the Kia FIFA World Cup Sales Challenge for our district. These recognitions are a reflection of the dedication our sales and service teams bring to every customer interaction.

For local shoppers, our growth has created even more opportunities. Today, Van Horn Kia offers the largest new Kia inventory in our district, giving customers more vehicles to choose from and making it easier to find the right model without the long wait. And if the exact vehicle isn’t on our lot, our team is committed to finding it.

Looking Forward

While we’re proud of everything we’ve accomplished in our first year, this anniversary isn’t simply about looking back. It’s about continuing to invest in the people and communities we serve.

From supporting local organizations and community events to helping families find safe, reliable transportation, Van Horn Kia of Sheboygan is committed to being more than a dealership; we strive to be a trusted community partner.

As we celebrate our one-year anniversary throughout July, we’d like to thank every customer who has purchased a vehicle, trusted our service team, referred a friend, or simply stopped by to say hello. Your support has helped make our first year one to remember.
