Tom Heffernan Ford & Mosaic Ford Lake City | Lake City Ford
Three Names. One Long Ford Story in Lake City.
If you remember Tom Heffernan Ford, visited Mosaic Ford Lake City, or recently discovered Lake City Ford, you are looking at different chapters of the same Ford dealership story in Lake City, Minnesota.
The dealership at 310 N Lakeshore Dr. has served generations of drivers along Highway 61, Lake Pepin, and communities throughout southeast Minnesota. The ownership and name have changed over time, but Ford has remained part of this Lake City location through each chapter.
More Than 50 Years of Ford History in Lake City
The names on the building have changed, but the history of this dealership reaches back more than half a century. Here is how Tom Heffernan Ford became Mosaic Ford Lake City and, eventually, today’s Lake City Ford.
The Tom Heffernan Ford Era Begins
Tom Heffernan acquired the Ford dealership in Lake City in 1973, beginning a dealership ownership run that would last 51 years.
Tom and Marie Heffernan became closely associated with Ford in Lake City, serving customers from the community and surrounding southeast Minnesota for generations. By the time the dealership changed ownership in 2024, the Heffernan name had become part of the local automotive landscape.
Tom Heffernan Ford Becomes Mosaic Ford Lake City
In June 2024, Mosaic Auto Group purchased Tom Heffernan Ford from Tom and Marie Heffernan as they retired from dealership ownership.
The dealership was renamed Mosaic Ford Lake City and continued operating at 310 N Lakeshore Dr.
During the Mosaic chapter, the dealership continued serving Ford customers in Lake City while investments were made in areas including service capacity and Mobile Service.
Mosaic Ford Lake City Becomes Lake City Ford
In 2026, Daraius Mistry purchased the dealership from Mosaic Auto Group and introduced the name it carries today: Lake City Ford.
The new name puts the community directly at the center of the dealership’s identity. Lake City Ford continues operating from 310 N Lakeshore Dr., along Highway 61 and just steps from Lake Pepin.
The Lake City Chamber of Commerce formally welcomed Daraius and Christina Mistry with a ribbon-cutting celebration in March 2026, marking another new chapter for the longtime local Ford dealership.
