Meet Daraius Mistry
Daraius Mistry is a seasoned automotive leader known for building strong teams, creating high-performance dealership cultures, and putting people at the center of the business.
His career has taken him through major automotive groups, fast-growing dealerships, challenging markets, and new store launches. Through every chapter, one belief has stayed the same: great dealerships are built by great people.
That belief now guides the future of Lake City Ford.
A Different Kind Of Dealership Experience
Daraius believes buying or servicing a vehicle should not feel stressful, confusing, or overwhelming. At Lake City Ford, the goal is to create an experience that feels easier, more transparent, and more welcoming from start to finish.
Clear Answers. Real People. A Better Way To Do Business.
What New Ownership Means For You
A Stronger CultureA dealership team built around support, accountability, and taking care of customers the right way. |
A Simpler ProcessShopping, financing, and servicing should feel straightforward, respectful, and easy to understand. |

A Renewed Local CommitmentLake City Ford is focused on serving Lake City, Lake Pepin, Wabasha, Red Wing, Rochester, and nearby Minnesota communities. |
Built On Culture. Powered By People.
For Daraius, numbers matter, but culture comes first. He has built his career on empowering employees, developing leaders, and creating dealership environments where teams can succeed.
When a dealership team feels supported, customers feel the difference. That is the kind of culture Lake City Ford is working to build every day.
A team that listens. A process that feels simple. A dealership that values your time.
Experience That Moves Dealerships Forward
Daraius did not step into the automotive industry from the top. He started at the dealership level and worked his way through the business, learning sales, customer service, operations, leadership, and growth from the ground up.
His background includes leadership experience with respected automotive organizations, managing teams through changing markets, and helping dealerships grow through strong processes and stronger people.
That experience matters because today’s customers expect more from a dealership. More transparency. More convenience. More accountability. More real communication.
Lake City Ford is ready to deliver on that expectation.
More Than A Dealership
Daraius believes a dealership should be more than a place to buy a vehicle. It should be a place that supports people, builds relationships, and becomes part of the community it serves.
A dealership should not just serve a community. It should belong to one.
