MG Motor UK has added five new partners to its dealer network as it continues to drive towards its goal of establishing a full national network of 120 sites by 2020.

The latest additions to the MG network are Crayford & Abbs in north Norfolk, Thomas & Davies in Merthyr Tydfil, McMillan Motors in Greenock, Jermyn & Sons in Seaford, East Sussex and FG Barnes in Canterbury. All five sites joined MG’s rapidly-growing network in July, taking MG’s dealership network up to a total of 81 sites.

MG has stated publicly that it intends to expand its dealer network to 120 sites by 2020 as part of its ambitious growth plans in the UK. Network expansion is one of MG’s two key strategic pillars for volume growth in the UK, the second being new model launches. The next new model launch will be New MG3 which goes on sale in September.

The volume growth strategy is already showing results in 2018 as MG continues to be the UK’s fastest growing car manufacturer with first-half sales increasing by a staggering 115%. MG also announced the opening of a prestigious new 250m2 sales and marketing showroom in Marylebone, London, a clear indication of the brand’s commitment to growth in the UK.

Daniel Gregorious, Head of Sales & Marketing at MG Motor UK, commented:

We’re absolutely delighted to welcome five new dealerships to the MG network. Each of them brings their own unique strengths but they all share a common interest in selling plenty of cars and putting the customer at the heart of everything they do. I’m certain that our five new dealers will successfully introduce our value-for-money cars, long warranties and great finance offers to their local communities.”
