Jaguar Land Rover honours top dealers in Southern Africa

"Both Jaguar Bryanston and Land Rover N4 Witbank excelled in the stringent criteria we set down for all of our dealers," said Kevin Flynn, managing director of Jaguar Land Rover South Africa and sub-Saharan Africa. "Our dealers are our primary point of contact with our customers and therefore it is imperative that they strive for the highest levels of service excellence in every sphere."

Jaguar Bryanston also emerged as the Jaguar Top Sales Dealer of the Year as well as scooping the award for Jaguar Top Service Customer Satisfaction Index Dealer of the Year for its consistency in customer service excellence.

Land Rover Sandton excels

Land Rover's Top Sales Dealer title was awarded to Land Rover Sandton for its exceptional sales volumes during 2011 as well as the trophy for The Land Rover Top Service Customer Satisfaction Index Dealer of the Year.
