Mitsubishi awards its top performers

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.

All these factors are considered for the overall Dealer of the Year award, which went to Mitsubishi Motors East London.

The hotly contested sales executive award in the large dealer category was clinched by Megan Moonsamy from Mitsubishi Motors Umhlanga. Sharing the honours in the medium dealer category were Sipho Makuliwe from Mitsubishi Motors East London and James Motlanthe from Mitsubishi Motors Hatfield. The award is of particular significance for Motlanthe who enters retirement and ends a stellar career with this prestigious award. MG Laubscher from Mitsubishi Motors George walked away with the honours in the small dealer category.

Service Advisors Gerard Peterson and Jan Lottering from Mitsubishi Motors Menlyn and Natasha Slater from Mitsubishi Motors Kimberley were honoured with Diamond Service Awards for National and International CSI.

Parts managers Grant Collinicos from Mitsubishi Motors Paarden Eiland, Lindiwe Mokoena from Mitsubishi Motors Bedfordview and Charmaine Werner from Mitsubishi Motors George received recognition for their contribution to keeping customers’ vehicles on the road.
