Despite the forthcoming closure of their brand, Holden dealers remain focussed on serving their customers and communities.

The Holden Dealer Council has sent a letter to state and territory governments and health authorities offering the support of its dealer network to help thwart the Covid-19 virus.

According to CarAdvice who have sighted the letter signed by Holden Dealer Council secretary David Nicholson, the Holden dealers are offering the authorities their empty showrooms and workshops for use in the battle against Covid-19 before the businesses close permanently.

The letter states: “We remain open to other suggestions, but we were very keen to convey our most sincere desire to assist where we can. This is our community and Australian Holden Dealers want to do our bit and encourage other businesses to do the same.”
