Ray Brede has been with Denham Ford since January 2009, and he is the new general manager of Denham’s most recent acquisition, Cranbrook Hyundai, formerly Hillcrest Hyundai. Brede said the Denham group has been looking at getting into imports for a while, and its award-winning improvements makes Hyundai their best option. “The parts and service technicians all stayed with us,” Brede said, “and we’re looking forward to moving into bigger space at the old location of Millennium Ford in April. We’ll also be interested to see the effects the new Canada-Korea free trade agreement has on our business.”
