Davenport realty welcomes Mazda dealer to Yarmouth

Published on Tuesday, January 19, 2010

At a time when many car dealerships are downsizing or disappearing, Shaker Auto Group and Mazda have recognized the demand for a new Mazda dealership convenient to Cape residents and visitors. The new dealership will lease the high-visibility Davenport Realty property at 527 Station Avenue, with easy accessibility for all Cape residents due to its mid-Cape location just off Route 6 at Exit 8. Cape Cod Mazda, featuring auto sales and service, will be the only Mazda dealership serving Cape Cod and the Islands when it opens in late January/early February, 2010. The Shaker Auto Group owns six additional dealerships throughout MA and CT.

Both Davenport Realty and Shaker Auto Group are multi-generational family owned and operated companies, each having been in business more than 50 years. Joe Shaker, Principal of Shaker Auto Group, says “This is a good opportunity to combine the Davenport family’s long tradition in real estate with the Shaker family’s background in auto sales. We are excited to bring Mazda, a franchise we know well, to the area.”

Since 1956, Davenport’s team of commercial real estate brokers has helped local and regional business owners with the purchase, sales and leasing of commercial land and property on Cape Cod. According to Davenport Realty, “The fantastic location and welcoming business environment of Yarmouth were key in attracting this new business.”
