Family-owned dealership brings its people-first approach and one of America’s most recognized automotive brands to South Georgia
TALLAHASSEE, FL (September 22, 2026) —The Proctor Dealerships are proud to announce the launch of Proctor Ford, marking a significant milestone in the family-owned company’s continued growth and commitment to serving customers throughout South Georgia and North Florida. The location in Thomasville becomes the fourth dealership under The Proctor Dealerships umbrella, joining Proctor Honda, Proctor Acura, and Proctor Subaru.
For more than 115 years, The Proctor Dealerships have served generations of customers, focused on dedicated customer service, integrity, and strong community relationships. The opening of Proctor Ford represents both an expansion of the company’s legacy and an expanded investment in the Thomasville community.
“Opening Proctor Ford is an exciting new chapter for our company,” said Theo Proctor III, co-owner of The Proctor Dealerships. “We’ve had a presence in South Georgia by way of proximity and community involvement for many years, and we are excited to continue becoming even more invested in the Thomasville community. The addition of a Ford dealership fills a long-standing opportunity for the Proctor Dealerships, as many of our customers have expressed interest in seeing us add full-size trucks and SUVs to our lineup. We are excited for the opportunity to serve even more customers.”
“Our goal is, and has always been, to take care of people,” said Martin Proctor, Sr., co-owner of The Proctor Dealerships. “Whether providing exceptional customer experiences, supporting local organizations, or staying true to our motto, ‘in the people business,’ we are excited to bring the Proctor legacy to Thomasville and continue building relationships across South Georgia. Proctor Ford can offer our customers access to one of America’s most recognized automotive brands while maintaining the personalized service that has defined our company for more than a century.”
For residents throughout Thomas County and the surrounding region, Proctor Ford will provide customer-first sales, service, and parts support. The company will also continue servicing Lincoln vehicles and performing eligible Lincoln warranty work with the same commitment to excellence that Proctor Dealership customers experience.
As Proctor Ford begins operations, the company plans to continue investing in its team and creating memorable customer experiences while preserving the local relationships that have made the dealership an important part of the North Florida and South Georgia regions for years. A grand opening will be held later, with more details for follow. Visit ProctorFord.com to learn more.
