A 150 vehicle supersite has been opened in north London, by used van and truck specialist Broadway Motor Company.

The dealership, believed to be among the largest used commercial vehicle sites in the country, is based at Neasden, and is a development of an existing Broadway site.

Ian Griffiths, sales leader at Broadway said: "With the additional land we've been able to use here, the enlarged site is four times the size of the old premises, and we can carry extensive stock levels.

"Also, Neasden is an ideal location. It is within easy reach for almost anyone across London, as well as for customers using the M1 and M40 motorways. We are confident that the operation will prove to be a major success."

Griffiths added that the supersite was part of an ongoing expansion of Broadway's operations that had been taking place over the last year in response to the growing retail sales that the company had been experiencing.

He said: "We have recently added new satellite, appointment-based braches at Derby and Stoke in addition to our existing locations at Manchester, Gateshead, Rotherham, Birmingham and Liverpool.

"While the used commercial vehicle market as a whole has been suffering, business for us has remained strong with retail sales growing. We believe that this is an ideal time to invest in the company, which is why we have been expanding our sites.

"Certainly, the kind of high quality, three year old, one owner stock in which we specialise has been finding a market, often as a value-for-money alternative to a new vehicle. Customers very much see this as an attractive option in the current economic climate."
