Vertu Derby Dealership Named As Citroen's Best
Vertu Derby Citroen has been named ‘Large Retailer of the Year’ by Citroen at its National Chevron Awards event.
The recognition highlights the excellent performance of the dealership and its contribution to Derbyshire’s automotive sector.
The award is one of Citroen’s highest retailer honours and recognises sustained standards across sales, service and operational delivery.
Judges assess performance over time, placing emphasis on consistency, customer experience and management.
The judges’ decision also reflects the contribution of colleagues who played significant roles during the assessment period across the dealership.
The award was accepted on behalf of the Derby dealership by Vertu colleagues Ian Wilson, Martin Hammond and Martin Maw.
Mollie Deacon, General Manager at Vertu Derby Citroen, said: “This award is a result of a collective effort from the whole dealership team, and I’m very proud this has been recognised by Citroen.
“Everyone has worked consistently to deliver strong results across the business.”
Robert Forrester, Chief Executive at Vertu, said: “This award is based on long-term performance rather than short-term results, and reflects disciplined management, attention to detail and a clear focus on meeting customer expectations.
“Awards of this nature are built over time and across multiple roles. They depend on people working to shared standards and maintaining consistency across the business.
“The recognition comes as the Citroen brand continues to strengthen its market position, supported by new model introductions, competitive offers and manufacturer support. Vertu’s Citroen network has continued to perform strongly, with Derby playing a key role within the Group.”
