Mitsubishi Motors South Africa has awarded dealers and select dealership staff for strong performances across a variety of dealership roles.
The overall Dealer of the Year award and regular winner, Mitsubishi Motors East London, has again clinched this prestigious title.
The Mitsubishi Dealer of the Year awards recognise excellence across the brand’s dealerships and follow a comprehensive, ongoing evaluation process that measures a wide range of aspects of dealer performance.
These include factors such as sales volumes, the meeting of sales targets, parts sales, after-sales business excellence and customer satisfaction.
In the sales vs retail sales category, Mitsubishi Motors The Glen, Mitsubishi Motors Mobeni and Mitsubishi Motors Empangeni were the best performers.
Mitsubishi Motors East Rand, Mitsubishi Motors East London and Mitsubishi Motors George sold the most retail units across the three dealer categories.
The best performing Fleet sales dealers across the three categories were Mitsubishi Motors Umhlanga, Mitsubishi Motors Mobeni and Mitsubishi Motors Middelburg.
