Motability Operations, the company that manages the national Motability car scheme for disabled motorists, has awarded Ford Retail their highest accolade of ‘Dealer Group of the Year’ for the fourth year running.
Presenting at the 2009 annual Supplier Awards held on Friday 3rd July, Ian Goswell, commercial services director of Motability Operations, said: “Ford Retail fully deserve to win this top award again. This has been an extremely positive year for the Motability Scheme and key to this has been the work of our business partners and suppliers who provide the highest levels of service for our customers”.
He continued: “Across the Ford Retail Group, dealers have continued to show exemplary levels of passion and commitment to the Scheme, setting the standard for business excellence”.
On collecting the award, Malcolm Tutton, Ford Retail’s Motability Manager, said: “Motability is extremely important to Ford Retail and we are very proud to have won ‘Dealer Group of the Year’ for the fourth year running. Winning the award is clear evidence that the commitment and excellence of each of our Motability specialists has been recognised”.
In addition to the award for Dealer Group of the Year, three individual Ford Retail dealerships from the Polar Ford and Dagenham Motors brands were ‘Highly Commended’ or rewarded for the huge commitment and achievements over the last 12 months.
The award to best manufacturer with annual Motability registrations over 10,000 went to Ford Motor Company. The latest Ford model range's flexibility and adaptability to suit disabled drivers led to the blue oval becoming Motability's favourite vehicle brand in the first half of 2009.
