Bristol Street Motors has made a significant investment in its new Ford dealership in Newcastle, creating around 50 new jobs across sales, aftersales, service and parts.
The Scotswood Road dealership is undergoing a comprehensive refurbishment with an investment of £1 million to become Bristol Street Motors Newcastle Ford and will be its flagship centre for Ford.
Robert Forrester, chief executive of Bristol Street Motors, said: “This move takes our Ford dealership count to four in the northeast, spanning across Newcastle, Morpeth, Durham, and Hartlepool locations.”
“Our continued growth is a testament to our team’s unwavering commitment to service excellence and our loyal customer base,” said Forrester. “This strategic investment not only allows us to provide more choices and even better service to our customers, but also contributes positively to the local community by creating significant employment opportunities.”
Nationwide, this acquisition enhances its presence to 21 Ford dealerships under the Bristol Street Motors and Macklin Motors banners.
