Since 1946, Kennedy Bros have proudly delivered a trusted, high-quality service to residents and businesses in Rotherfield and the surrounding area.
Founded by Jim and Lionel Kennedy, the business first operated from the garages of the George Pub, and some locals may still recall the petrol station that ran in the High Street from the 1950s until 1995.
Jim’s children, Robin, Mark and Sarah, later joined the firm as the second generation, continuing its reputation for friendly, reliable service while building a loyal and growing customer base.
Alongside servicing and car sales, community has always been central to the business, with the team actively supporting a wide range of local initiatives, events, and charitable causes over many years.
Now in 2026, Kennedy Bros enters a new chapter under the ownership of Ben Mackay, whose broad experience across the motor industry, combined with close collaboration with Mark and Sarah, ensures a seamless transition and business as usual for customers.
