This innovative program is managed by GE Money Finance, a company that provides billions of dollars of consumer credit through more than 145,000 small and medium-sized business locations on Main Streets across the United States.

“Bernardi Honda, the only recipient of the 2009 Honda President’s Award in the state of Massachusetts, is focused on providing fast, efficient Honda repair service at an affordable price,” said Joel Richards, General Manager of Bernardi Honda. “Offering the Honda Club Card program is yet another way to reinforce our commitment to serving our customers’ needs.”
