About us

The story of Perry Auto Laval is one of a family passion for cars and racing spanning 70 years!

Perry Wener, owner of the store specializes in selling replacement parts and maintenance products for all types of vehicles, started working during the summers as a representative on the road for his father Bernie, the owner of Bernie Auto Parts, a store that has been open in Ville Saint-Laurent since 1949. Once he obtained his degree in mechanical engineering from McGill University, he discussed with his family the opportunities for becoming an engineer or a businessman. To help balance his career and his passion, Perry decided to invest full-time and to open a store in Laval.

After more than 22 years, Perry has no regrets and is proud to supply the mechanics of Laval and the North Shore, and advising automotive enthusiasts who like to repair their own vehicles.

Since 1994 the business has grown into a large successful company and in 2008, the area of store and storage had to be almost doubled to meet for the greater demand and the creation of the Performance & Competition Division.  In 2010, Perry Auto Laval was a finalist in Laval’s Dunamis Award for distributors.  In 2011 Perry Auto Laval won the award for Small Business under 15 Employees and in 2012 followed it up with a win in Family Business. Perry Auto Laval was awarded the coveted JOBBER of the YEAR award in 2015 – voted by his peers with Auto Value / Vast Auto!

In 2015 the store moved locations to a brand new facility, 2110 Monterey Laval, with more than 15,000 sq feet of showroom and stock room.
