READERS’ CHOICE 2016

Congratulations Readers’ Choice winners T

Kelly Hall Publisher

he results are in for the 2016 Readers’ Choice Awards and, once again, we’d like to thank all of our voters for taking the time to complete the survey. Without the support of our loyal readers, we would be unable to celebrate your favourite service providers and retailers. Kamloops This Week would like to congratulate all the businesses recognized at the top of their categories. You should take great pride in knowing your community acknowledges your excellence. Tallying the many surveys — online and in print — is an enormous task and we’d like to thank our partner KPMG for verifying the results. It is with great pleasure we present to you the 2016 Reader’s Choice winners.

Votes for the Readers’ Choice awards were cast via online and print ballot from July 5 to Aug. 5. Voters were required to complete a minimum of 50 per cent of the survey, which included 118 categories in food, beverage and entertainment, retail and services. Submissions were limited to one entry per household per day. Employees of Kamloops This Week and their immediate family members were not eligible to vote.

Thank you, Kamloops... for voting us one of the best shopping centres! We appreciate your loyalty. OVER 40 STORES & SERVICES FOR YOUR SHOPPING CONVENIENCE • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

We are proud to be named Kamloops’ favourite New Car Dealer. Thank you to everyone who voted for us, we’re looking forward to another year of being the place where Kamloops comes to save!

As the only locally owned and operated Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram dealer in the city, we take pride in doing things differently.

Here are some of the things that make us unique:

LOCALLY OWNED & OPERATED

NON-COMMISSIONED SALES STAFF

EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE

EXTENDED OPERATING HOURS

Rivershore Ram is owned and operated by Kamloops locals Denis Lowe and Dan Laporte. As a long-time resident of Kamloops, Denis Lowe has been personally invested in our business and our community. From supporting local charities to providing well paying jobs for Kamloopsians, Denis and Dan remain dedicated to Kamloops as a whole.

We believe in a balanced and fair workplace for both staff and customers. By removing the commission structure we provide our sales staff with a fair and comfortable workplace, and ensure all of our customers receive a relaxed and pressure free shopping experience. After all - no one likes a sleazy sales pitch.

From sales to maintenance, we are always working hard to ensure our customers receive the best possible service at Rivershore Ram. With our well trained front end staff and knowledgeable staff in our Mopar Express Lane, every one of our customers receives a service experience that will leave a lasting impression.

We know you’re busy - so are we! To help make your busy day a little simpler, we provide extended operating hours in all aspects of our business. Our sales staff are on hand Monday to Thursday until 8:00pm, and our service staff are available Monday to Saturday from 7:00am - 6:00pm.
