The family-owned UK business located at Sandford near Appleby, Cumbria has been awarded the Hyundai UK and Ireland dealer of the year for increasing market share and sales to become one of Europe’s most successful dealers.
Chris Jordan, Taylor & Braithwaite’s North East area sales manager, has been awarded the European salesperson of the year.
In addition, the company received a special accolade for being the European dealer selling the most units in 2021.
Ian Burton, Taylor & Braithwaite sales director, commented: “These three accolades are recognition of the hard work and dedication of our staff and continued loyalty of our customers throughout 2021. Chris Jordan, has worked tirelessly across his area for six years, developing the Hyundai and Taylor & Braithwaite brands across the North East of England."
Burton said the European dealer award is more remarkable when considering there are over eighty dealers across the region, from Latvia in the East, Spain in the South, Finland in the north, and Ireland in the West.
"The construction sector has continued to trade strongly throughout the pandemic, and Taylor & Braithwaite have been in a good position to capitalise on this with both strong sales and aftersales support," he added.
Dr. Hubertus Münster, Hyundai Europe sales & marketing director, added: “At the start of each year Hyundai Construction Equipment Europe takes a moment to look back at the previous one. 2021 has been a challenging but very rewarding year resulting in record sales of construction equipment.”
