Breeze Motor Group has revealed plans to join the Suzuki GB franchised car retail network with the opening of a new dealership in Poole.

The Volkswagen franchisee, based in Poole, Dorset, has revealed that it is set to open its new facility in a former Jaguar showroom on West Quay Road, Poole, in January.

Its Suzuki dealership will create 11 new jobs and will offer a six-car showroom, a forecourt for 23 used cars, customer parking and six-bay workshop.

In an announcement made via LinkedIn this week, Breeze Motor Group managing director, Mark Langford, said: “We’re really excited to be adding to the Breeze family by bringing Suzuki back to Poole.

“We take great pride in our dedication to delivering excellent customer service, and Suzuki customers can be assured that this will carry through to the new business.”

Steve Prew, network development manager for Suzuki, said: “We were looking for a partner with a long-standing, positive reputation amongst motorists, who could revive our presence in the area.

“Having enjoyed success in the automotive retail sector for more than two decades, Breeze was the natural choice.”

The new Breeze Suzuki dealership will join a group portfolio which includes Breeze Volkswagen, Breeze Van Centres, Coastal Car Sales and Bournemouth TPS.
