Škoda UK has announced the winners of its annual Retailer of the Year Awards 2024, with Vindis Škoda (Bury St Edmunds) crowned best of the best.
The Retailer of the Year Awards celebrate retailer excellence across the Škoda network.
Specific award categories cover sales, fleet, electric vehicles (EVs), customer experience, Used Sales, Aftersales, and of course the overall Retailer of the Year accolade.
Fighting off firm competition from more than 125 Škoda retailers across the UK and noted for a fantastic team culture, Vindis Škoda (Bury St Edmunds), who finished ninth in 2022 and third in 2023, climbed the ranks to take top honours for 2024.
In second place was Barlow Motors (Crewe), the overall winner in 2023, and in third was RRG Škoda (Rochdale), climbing a massive 35 places since 2023.
Matthew Bowden, Škoda UK brand director, said: “Škoda is transforming into an extraordinary brand, a journey made possible by the unwavering support of our retailer partners.
"It is a privilege to recognise not only the winners but the entire network for their dedication and hard work in championing the Škoda brand."
Vindis Škoda (Bury St Edmunds) not only won the top title of Retailer of the Year but also excelled in the Aftersales and Human Touch categories.
The other awards were won by five separate retailers, which the brand said "highlights the level of consistent excellence across the UK retailer network".
