Eric Gentry began his automotive career in 1994 with Hulett Chevrolet Buick GMC at the Lake of the Ozarks. After eight years with Hulett, Eric moved to Kansas City where he worked as a finance manager and eventually general manager for a successful local dealer group. In 2014, Eric took the risk and opportunity of a lifetime by partnering with Premier Automotive to found the Victory Auto Group. After helping grow the organization to 10 dealerships, he once again bet on himself by purchasing his partners’ interest in the Victory Chevrolet dealership in Smithville. Today under Eric’s leadership, Gentry Chevrolet continues to grow while remaining firmly rooted in the values that define him: honesty, teamwork, hard work, humility, and above all, the Golden Rule.
