Peugeot dealers face the axe
Network could be reduced by 10% in two years
Peugeot plans to cut the size of its UK dealer network despite enjoying a sales resurgence on the back of new product launches.
Rod Philpot, director network development, said the brand's 301-strong sales network could be reduced by 10 per cent within two years.
Philpot claimed improved road access to the UK's conurbations meant fewer dealerships were needed but he added: “We have a clear obligation to meet consumers' needs.”
