Many dealerships have taken extraordinary precautions to ensure confidence from the wider community that the purchase of a new car, vehicle service or parts delivery can continue. The measures taken include:
- increased frequency of facility cleaning, and disinfecting, hand sanitisers in place throughout each dealership;
- not permitting staff to attend work when unwell, staff refraining from personal contact such as shaking hands; and
- requesting customers practice good respiratory hygiene by covering their mouth and nose when coughing and sneezing at all times.
“The health and safety of our customers and staff is always our top priority. We have implemented these measures so confidence can be maintained, ensuring the fun and enjoyment of the Suzuki brand can continue at all levels from our supply chain to our dealership experience,” says Pachota.
