MMAL chief executive Shaun Westcott and other executive members came to Melbourne to personally congratulate the seven winners, who travelled from around the country to celebrate on the night.

Established in 1981, the Distinguished Dealer Award is the highest accolade available to Mitsubishi dealers in metropolitan and regional areas.

The award celebrates success across sales, aftersales, and customer experience at a dealership. It truly represents the hard work and effort staff at dealerships put in as part of a team throughout the previous year.

“The Distinguished Dealer Award sets a high bar for Mitsubishi dealers across Australia as we seek to continually exceed our customers’ expectations by demonstrating excellence across the business, MMAL chief executive Shaun Westcott says. 

“Each year, these awards spur the Mitsubishi Motors national dealer network to even higher standards across all facets of dealership operations.”

“This year is no different as we recognise a group of consistently high performers while rewarding new achievers for the first time. This is great news for MMAL and its customers, and we look forward to seeing what our dealer network will achieve in the future,” he says.
