DEALER OF THE YEAR AWARDS CATEGORIES REVEALED

Service Dealer can today unveil the categories for November's Dealer Of The Year Awards.

Entries for the Awards will go live in a couple of weeks' time - until then dealers can browse through the categories and decide which they would like to enter this year.

Service Dealer owner Duncan Murray-Clarke said, "This year we are welcoming back our core product dealership categories - as well as retaining some of the special awards we introduced last year.

"We encourage all our dealer readers to start thinking today which categories they could enter this year. Begin to gather your thoughts and perhaps start to assemble your supporting evidence in readiness of entries going live.

"You know how hard you and your team have worked this past year - well, now's the time to gain recognition!"

Full details of how to enter will be announced in a subsequent edition of this Service Dealer Weekly Update - until then here are the 2022 Service Dealer Awards categories that dealers will be able to enter:
