LARGEST CONTRIBUTORS TO VICTORY FUND During the convention, NCADA recognized the dealer groups and members whose significant contributions to the NCADA Victory Fund continue to strengthen the association’s advocacy efforts. The Victory Fund exists to protect North Carolina’s franchise laws and the dealers who depend on them. Special recognition went to the Fayetteville New Car Dealers Association, Modern Automotive Network, Flow Automotive and Hendrick Automotive, who were the largest contributors to the Victory Fund in 2025. Their support helps ensure North Carolina’s franchised dealers have a strong, unified voice on the issues that matter most.
