First Standalone Genesis Dealership Opens In Atlanta

• Genesis of Atlanta marks the brand's sixth standalone retailer to open in the United States.

ATLANTA, July 18, 2023 -- Today, Genesis announced the grand opening of Genesis of Atlanta, the brand's sixth standalone retail facility in the United States and its first in Georgia.

At Genesis, the customer's time and convenience are at the center of the retail experience. Genesis of Atlanta features an open floorplan showcasing the award-winning Genesis product portfolio with distinct brand elements. In addition to the in-store experience, visitors can take full advantage of Genesis Concierge, a unique and complimentary service that provides a seamless, tailored retail experience. Genesis Concierge pairs customers with a personal advisor to aid in the shopping experience, including scheduling test drives – at the retail facility or at home – and arranging vehicle delivery to their residence or place of business.

Genesis of Atlanta is owned and operated by Wes Ellis, president and CEO of Jim Ellis Automotive Group.

"The southeastern United States remains an important market for our brand, and we are pleased to be introducing Genesis of Atlanta to customers in Georgia," said Claudia Marquez, chief operating officer of Genesis Motor North America. "We are proud to partner with Wes Ellis and the Jim Ellis Automotive Group in this venture. We appreciate their commitment to providing an exceptional retail experience for our customers."

"We are proud to bring the first standalone Genesis retail facility to the Peach State," said Wes Ellis, dealer principal of Genesis of Atlanta. "We look forward to welcoming the community into our new home to introduce them to the impressive Genesis product lineup."

To celebrate the grand opening and give back to the local community, Genesis Motor America and Genesis of Atlanta presented a $20,000 donation to Chamblee Boys & Girls Club. This charitable contribution marks the continuation of Genesis Gives, an initiative that supports STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, mathematics) education, sports, and athletics programming for children.

Genesis of Atlanta is the sixth of many planned standalone retail facilities for the brand in the United States. Several more locations are currently under development nationwide.
