Retail Motor Industry Federation franchised dealer director Alan Pulham is to be the opening speaker at the Automotive Retailing and Distribution Summit, taking place on June 7-8.

Pulham will be the first speaker at the Automotive Retailing and Distribution Summit, taking place on June 7-8 at the Kempinski Hotel, Berlin.

Pulham says: “The UK has the most sophisticated new car market in Europe, and dealers are facing a range of complex issues that affect their businesses and their relationships with their customers.

“I will be at the conference to give my views on the impact of Block Exemption Regulation 1400/2002, the reaction of vehicle manufacturers to greater dealer freedoms now and those resulting from the removal of the location clause in October 2005.”
