Glews Garage has appointed David Giles (pictured right) as dealer principal at its Goole dealership. 

He has joined the firm after working for 18 years at Brian Leighton Garages in Howden.

Giles has worked with a number of manufacturers including Nissan, Mercedes to SsangYong and Izuzu. 

Joseph Richardson (left), Glews' managing director, said “It is an exciting time for Glews and we felt we needed a dealer principal who had the vision and energy to drive our ambitious plans forward. 

"The roundabout development on Rawcliffe Road will bring opportunities for growth and development. David will be responsible for leading his teams to maximize these opportunities and continue to deliver exceptional service to our customers old and new."

Giles said: “My challenge is to lead the dealership on this next phase of its journey, bringing the Glews brand to a wider audience both in private and company vehicle users.

"It is also important to me that we do this whilst maintaining the quality of workmanship, value for money and excellent customer service that Glews has become well known for delivering to the local community."

Glews Garage is the trading name of Jos Richardson and Son, a family run business for more than 100 years. It has an annual turnover of £30 million and has the Peugeot and Vauxhall franchises, a 24-hour recovery and accident repair centre and four service stations.
