The JCB Group has acquired the assets of Euro Canterbury Volkswagen’s Volkswagen Passenger Car business, Canterbury TPS centre, and the Canterbury Volkswagen Commercial Vehicle Authorised Repairer and Suzuki Aftersales Specialist operations.
The Volkswagen Passenger Car business, located on Broad Oak Rd, will now operate as JCB Volkswagen Canterbury, while the Commercial Vehicle Authorised Repairer will be known as JCB Van Service Centre Canterbury.
Jonathan Bischoff owner and managing director of the JCB Group said: “We are delighted to welcome the Canterbury teams into the JCB Group family.
“This acquisition represents another important step in our long-term vision of providing county-wide representation and outstanding customer service across Kent.
“We look forward to building on the strong reputation already established in Canterbury and continuing to support Volkswagen customers throughout the region.”
With the addition of Canterbury Volkswagen, the JCB Group now operates five Volkswagen Passenger Car businesses across Kent, in Maidstone, Medway, Ashford and Tunbridge Wells.
The acquisition of Canterbury TPS firmly establishes the JCB Group as the only TPS Trade Parts Specialists representative in Kent.
The addition of the Volkswagen Commercial Vehicle Authorised Repairer operation further reinforces the Group’s position as Kent’s only dedicated Volkswagen Commercial Vehicle specialist for both Sales and Aftersales support.
The existing Suzuki Aftersales Specialist is located within JCB Van Service.
