The Texas dealershipcontacts database
21,061 verified decision-makers across 1,760 Texas dealership rooftops — more rooftops than any other state we cover. Filter by OEM franchise, dealer group, role, and metro, then download a CSV. It's 1 credit per contact, and $0.99 to start.
What is the Texas dealership contacts database?
The Texas dealership contacts database is Hermes Data's verified list of decision-makers at Texas car dealerships. It covers 21,061 verified contacts across 1,760 franchised and independent rooftops — general managers, dealer principals, controllers, fleet and commercial managers, F&I and sales managers, and marketing leaders. Texas has more dealership rooftops than any other state in our coverage, and Chevrolet is its most-franchised OEM, reflecting a market where full-size trucks and commercial vehicles carry the floor. You filter by franchise, dealer group, role, and metro, then export names, titles, and verified emails as a CSV. It's 1 credit per contact, starting at a $0.99 trial.
More rooftops than any other state
1,760 Texas dealership rooftops, franchised and independent, carrying 21,061 verified decision-makers. The state association counts more than 1,400 franchised dealerships across roughly 290 Texas communities — our number is higher because it includes independents. If you're building a U.S. territory plan from scratch, Texas is usually the single largest line on it.
A truck and commercial market
Chevrolet leads the Texas franchise mix, and the state's commercial and fleet volume follows. If you sell upfitting, telematics, commercial financing, or fleet services, filter to the fleet and commercial titles rather than the general sales floor.
Five metros, not one state
Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, San Antonio, and Austin each behave like separate markets, and the border metros behave like a third thing again. Filter to the metro your rep actually covers instead of buying the state and sorting it later.
Pay-as-you-go, no contract
1 credit per contact. Plans start at $99/month, and a trial costs $0.99. Credits roll over and never expire, so a big state doesn't force a big commitment.

Compliance & sourcing
CAN-SPAM is the federal baseline for Texas outbound, and Texas has since layered on its own privacy and data-broker statutes — the direction of travel across states is toward more disclosure and faster opt-out handling, not less. Whatever the specific statute, the posture that holds up is the same: send only to business addresses you can account for, honor opt-outs promptly, and keep suppression lists current. Our side: every record is collected from public and dealer sources, verified through a multi-channel process, and tied to a specific rooftop with its parent dealer group attached. It's licensed for your own outbound under our terms of service, and not for resale.

Frequently asked questions
How many car dealerships does the Texas database cover?
Hermes Data covers 1,760 Texas dealership rooftops, franchised and independent, with 21,061 verified decision-maker contacts across them. That is more rooftops than any other U.S. state in our coverage. You can filter to a metro, an OEM franchise, a dealer group, or a role before you export.
Which Texas metros are included?
All of them. Coverage spans Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio, Austin, El Paso, McAllen, Corpus Christi, Lubbock, and Amarillo, plus the smaller markets in between. You can filter the database to a single metro or to a set of metros that matches your sales territory.
Does the Texas list include fleet and commercial managers?
Yes, where the rooftop staffs that desk. Texas is a truck-heavy market, so dedicated fleet and commercial sales roles are more common there than in most states. Filter by role to target fleet managers, commercial fleet managers, and commercial sales directors specifically, and preview the count before you export.
How much does the Texas dealership database cost?
Pricing is pay-as-you-go: 1 credit per contact. Plans start at $99/month, and a $0.99 trial gets you 20 credits. Credits never expire and there is no annual contract, so you only pay for the Texas dealership contacts you export.
