TrustFord has opened its latest dealerships in Glasgow and Aberdeen.
The Glasgow site is located at 21 Napier Road, Hillington Park and the new state-of-the-art dealership at the West Tullos Industrial Estate, Aberdeen, which began operations in March.
Lisa Brankin, chair and managing director of Ford of Britain and Ireland, officially opened the Glasgow site on 18 June, and the Aberdeen site on 19 June.
She was joined by Stuart Mustoe, CEO of TrustFord, along with TrustFord’s board and leadership team, and guests from TrustFord and Ford of Britain.
The new sites continues TrustFord’s investment in the UK, enhancing its existing fleet, parts plus, and mobile service operations. Over recent months, 96 new colleagues have been recruited and trained, bringing the total number of TrustFord employees in Scotland to 175.
Stuart Mustoe commented, “This week marks a significant milestone in our investment and commitment to Ford customers in Scotland. By expanding our UK coverage, we are setting a new standard in customer care. Whether you’re looking for a new or used vehicle, need service, fleet advice, or just want to browse, the World of TrustFord is here for you, and our expert Scotland team will take care of everything.”
Lisa Brankin added, “These impressive new dealerships in Aberdeen and Glasgow will provide a fantastic platform for Ford’s latest new passenger and commercial vehicles. I would like to thank the TrustFord Board and their team for all their support in bringing these new locations to life, and I wish the TrustFord Scotland team every success in the future.”
In line with TrustFord’s commitment to sustainability, the new showrooms are energy-efficient, featuring air-source heat pumps to reduce heating emissions and solar PV panels to generate electricity. Additionally, LED lighting and roof lights maximise natural light, improving energy efficiency.
TrustFord also operates PartsPlus in Glasgow, Dundee, and Aberdeen, along with their fleet services supported by their mobile service network.
