Huddersfield Motor firm named Business of the Month!

Tony died in 2008, but it is testimony to his character that Longley Park Motors is still a successful dealership, with a unique and dependable identity. The dealership continues to operate to the high standards of customer care put in place by its founding manager, and operates with a personal approach and flexibility that enables it to compete with even the largest franchises.

The company also offers unique services, such as a free loan car so that customers stay mobile when their car is off the road for services or repairs. The company has consistently outperformed the national market by a considerable margin, growing their market share significantly over the past 3 years. What is more, a skilled workforce of 19 people are employed from the Huddersfield area, contributing added value to the local economy.

Successful growth of the brand has led to recent expansion and investment, including the opening of a brand new Aftersales facility. Longley Park Motors Kia was awarded the November 2011 Business of the Month award in recognition of the company’s strong performance and contribution to the local economy.

Managing Director, John Waite, said: "2011 has been yet another record breaking year. With Kia Motors we have the opportunity to sell a truly fabulous range of cars. We always endeavour to make buying a car both a satisfying and comfortable experience. I am very proud of Longley Park and our reputation. I am honoured to be the guardian of it. On behalf of my exceptional staff I thank you for the award.”

The Business of the Month Award is run in association with Mid Yorkshire Chamber of Commerce and UKTI. It is open to firms in Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield.
