Case Study: Hamilton Volkswagen achieves better dealership visibility and lower maintenance costs with Cree Lighting LED luminaires

Hamilton Volkswagen saves $2,000 a month with Cree Lighting

Hamilton Volkswagen, an automotive dealership in New Jersey, faced a significant challenge with its outdated high-pressure sodium lighting. The old system resulted in frequent outages, creating dark spots that hampered visibility for evening shoppers and made the dealership less noticeable from the nearby highway. The maintenance costs were a major expense, averaging $2,000 per month, with each service call costing hundreds of dollars before any work even began. The dealership turned to Cree Lighting for a solution.

Cree Lighting implemented an LED upgrade using its CR Series troffers, OSQ flood lights, and CPY250 Series canopy and soffit luminaires. This solution provided brilliant, high-quality light that greatly improved visibility across the car lot. The primary result was a dramatic reduction in maintenance costs, saving the dealership thousands of dollars. The upgrade from Cree Lighting eliminated the constant and costly upkeep of the previous system.
