A WELLINGTON car dealership is celebrating after being given the Nissan Global Award, recognising their outstanding sales performance.

Wellington Nissan, which is based in Chelston Business Park, is just one of three dealerships in the UK to receive the honour this year.

It is not the only award the dealership has received either.

They were recently voted Nissan’s After Sales Dealer of the Year and they are also a past winner of two Motor Trader magazine customer care awards.

Dealer Principal Michael Finn said: “We’re thrilled to receive this global award as it’s only presented where there is an exceptional standard of service across all areas of a business.

“We have a focused, well established team that works together to consistently deliver the highest levels of customer care and it’s great to have the recognition. Every member of the team has contributed to this award and can feel rightfully proud of what we have achieved.”

The team were presented with a trophy by James Wright, Managing Director of Nissan Motor in Great Britain.

Mr Wright said: “Very few dealerships in the world receive a Nissan Global Award and to win one is very special.

“This award recognises Wellington Nissan as a leader in Nissan’s worldwide retail network and the team’s commitment and hard work is ensuring that Nissan remains the fastest growing brand in the UK today.”

The dealership was also given a recorded message from Chairman and CEO of Nissan, Carlos Ghosn.
