Tyneside firm drives success

A used car dealer with a projected turnover of £25m plans to take on 15 new members of staff as it bids to expand its services throughout the region.

Tyneside Autoparc, based in Gosforth, is already the largest dealer of its kind in the region, and now hopes to dramatically increase its sales.

General Mmanager, Chris Denning, said: “My outlook for the rest of the year in increasing my sales rate to 200 per week and offering a fantastic customer service.

“I am also planning to expand the Tyneside Autoparc Training Acadamy offering a training program to all non sales people and apprentices.”

Tyneside Autoparc was first established in 2004 with dealerships selling used cars.

Building on its success and ocation just off the A1, the firm relaunched in a bid to become the largest independent used car supermarket in the North East.

The new management team is headed by Chris Denning, who has 18 years experience as general manager of Benfield Motor Group.
