Nissan Names Retailer Of The Year

The cream of Nissan retailing have been recognised in Geneva.

After being shown the stars of the Nissan motor show stand, Juke, Micra & Leaf, the top performers were handed awards celebrating excellence in 10 categories (winners listed below).

Picking up the top prize for Overall Retailer of the Year was J S Holmes Ltd. Fulfilling the criteria of outstanding customer quality, customer satisfaction and retail sales performance, Steve Holmes collected the award from Nissan’s UK MD, Paul Willcox.

Paul Willcox said: "The quality and diversity of our model range is giving our retailers a real boost. The performance of many of our network partners has been outstanding throughout what has been a difficult period for the motor industry, helping Nissan to achieve its biggest market share since 2003."

With a crop of such talented new models just around the corner it’s no wonder Nissan retailers are on a high. The recently announced National Franchised Dealers Association (NFDA) Dealer Attitude Survey showed Nissan was named the eight most valued franchise in the UK with increases in performance in particular areas of over 60%.
