Volvo Car Australia has named the Pinnacle Awards of Excellence winners for its top-performing retailers after a record-breaking sales performance in 2022.
For the fifth successive year Volvo Cars South Yarra was named Major Metro Retailer of The Year.
Volvo Cars Penrith took out the Metro Retailer of the Year award for the third successive year, while Volvo Cars Central West picked up the Rural Retailer of the Year award.
Runner-up awards were presented to Volvo Cars Parramatta (Major Metro); Volvo Cars Five Dock (Major Metro second runner-up); and Volvo Cars Mosman (Metro).
“Volvo’s Pinnacle Awards of Excellence are judged on a rigorous set of criteria, including outstanding customer experience, sales and developing and retaining outstanding staff,” said Volvo Car Australia managing director Stephen Connor says.
“Our retail network across Australia performed brilliantly in 2022. They played a massive role in delivering 10,715 vehicles nationally, which was the best result in the history of Volvo in Australia. They are fantastic partners.
“Volvo Cars South Yarra thoroughly deserve their record-breaking success. We are delighted to recognise the outstanding efforts of one of our best and most dedicated retailers for a record fifth successive time,” Connor says.
“Winning this award for the fifth time reinforces our belief in the Volvo brand, and our desire to deliver on the brand promise to our customers every day through an outstanding level of service,” Volvo Cars South Yarra dealer principal Sue Alford says.
“I want to thank all our staff and our customers, who have made winning this award possible,” she says.
