Farizon appoints Zoe Tonks as sales chief, expands network with Brian Currie

Jameel Motors has appointed Zoe Tonks as head of sales for Farizon UK, as the new commercial vehicle brand cements its position in the UK market.

Reporting directly to general manager Calum James, Tonks brings extensive experience from both the retail and OEM sides of the automotive sector, after having spent 14 years at Marshall Motor Group, where she rose to become head of corporate sales, and more recently having held the role of head of fleet at Harris Maxus UK.

Commenting on her new role, Tonks said: “Joining a new brand at such an early stage of its journey in the UK is an exciting challenge. I was attracted to the role in no small part due to the Farizon UK team’s clear approach and strong values, with innovation and customer satisfaction at the top of the list of priorities. The Farizon SV has a lot to offer, and I look forward to helping drive the brand’s ongoing success.”

Her appointment comes as Farizon UK further strengthens its dealer network with the addition of Brian Currie (Milton Keynes) as its latest franchised partner.

Based on Summerson Road, the commercial vehicle specialist has been serving customers since 2014 and now joins existing Farizon dealers SMV Commercials, Heathrow Van Centre, and the brand’s own site in Park Royal, North London, strategically covering key regions from the South West through London and now along the M1 corridor.
