Two retailer groups have joined forces to take part in Coachworks Consulting’s Race for Growth.
The separate companies decided to team up after experiencing the business-changing capabilities of Road to Growth – the aftersales programme run by Coachworks on behalf of VauxhallUK.
Senior managers from both groups left Road to Growth with the knowledge, leadership skills and vision to grow aftersales revenues significantly.
Now they want to accelerate that growth and take their development to the next level by introducing cultures, techniques and attitudes that will transform sales for years to come.
The two businesses are FG Barnes and J Davy. FG Barnes is a south of England-based group, while J Davy is part of a group with six dealerships in the south and the East Midlands.
Initially, Vauxhall retailers will take part in the 26-week programme, but plans are already being drawn up to extend Race for Growth to other group members, covering brands such as Chevrolet, Fiat, Alfa Romeo and Nissan. (more…)
