NFDA attracts Arnold Clark
Arnold Clark has joined the RMIF’s National Franchised Dealers Association because its retail operations in England are becoming increasingly important.
Eddie Hawthorne, managing director, said: “Sales south of the border account for about 25% of our turnover and will increase. We are talking to a number of companies about possible acquisitions and also building a used car operation at Stafford that will open this year.”
Hawthorne said he was attracted by the NFDA’s strong stance on preparation for the next EC Block Exemption review in 2010. He has accepted an invitation to join the NFDA’s executive committee and will attend his first meeting next month (April).
