“The Kenworth Dealer of the Year is the result of many factors, not just about who sells the most trucks, but which dealer provides the best overall performance for the customer and the award recognises many achievements over the year,” Mr May said.
“Southpac Trucks is an exemplar of how, when a team works together to deliver superior value for its customers, it can achieve great results. This dealer continues to be successful because of its single-minded commitment to customers,” he added.
“Southpac Trucks is most deserving of this award and is an excellent Kenworth dealer,” he concluded.
Southpac Trucks CEO, Maarten Durent, said he was pleased to accept the Kenworth award on behalf of all his staff.
“There was a huge effort put in by everyone across the entire company and the New Zealand Dealer Network and it is great for them to be recognised for all their hard work. We are so proud to win this and are looking forward to sharing it with everyone,” Maarten said.
