In a first for both dealerships, the prestigious Metropolitan Dealer of the Year was awarded to Sydney’s City Hino, while Tas Hino won the regional equivalent.
President and CEO of Hino Australia Richard Emery says yearly, the Dealer of the Year awards allows all Hino dealerships, their teams and the top dealer groups to be recognised.
“For the Tas Hino team, this award is reflective of their vision, investment and perseverance, particularly over the last two years since Ed Jones and his business partners bought the Tasmanian Hino dealer franchises,” he says.
“City Hino is a deserving recipient of the Metropolitan award– this title reinforces the team’s hard work, and also the multi-million dollar investment from Suttons Group at the Arndell Park dealership.”
General manager of City Hino Daniel Glynn and winner of the Metropolitan Dealer of the Year Award says it was an honour to receive the award and is grateful for the support received from Hino.
“This is a tribute to our team at City Hino which turns up every day as if it’s match day and are always prepared to go above and beyond for our customers,” he says.
The City Hino team also won the Parts Excellence Award (Metro) and, for the second consecutive year, took home the Hino Financial Services Excellence Award.
Dealer Principal of Tas Hino Troy Wood accepted the award on behalf of his team.
“At last year’s awards ceremony, we won one award and were inspired by the other dealerships who won more – we made a commitment to ourselves that we wanted to be even better,” he says.
“We made a massive investment in our people, ensuring that we have the right people in the right positions, and we owe a great deal of gratitude to our people for the transition we have gone through over the last 18 months,” he continued.
The 2024 Hino Dealer of the Year awards were held at the Langham on the Gold Coast on Saturday 22ndFebruary.
