Hendy Group has made a £3/4 million investment project in creating state-of-the-art showrooms for both Nissan and MG in Crawley.

Hendy chief executive Paul Hendy said that Crawley is an important location in the group’s portfolio and that both the opening of Nissan and the refurbishment at MG in the town will provide top class facilities for both customers and colleagues.

“Investing in our facilities and our colleagues is an important part of our expansion plans and we are pleased to be able to offer the very best here in Crawley,” said Hendy.

“We are delighted to be representing Nissan in the area and this new dealership joins our existing Nissan operations in Dorset, Wiltshire and Hampshire.”

Hendy has appointed Melinda Minns as the new sales manager to lead the Nissan brand in Crawley and recruitment has also included new technicians, sales advisors, and logistics personnel.
