Skoda to appoint more dealers
Skoda is looking to appoint another 21 franchised dealerships by 2011 taking its network to 152 outlets.
The actual number of new franchisees is likely to be closer to 40 due to forecast average annual network churn of 5-10 sites.
The majority of open points are in metropolitan areas and Skoda has turned to the sponsored retailer programme first developed by its parent company Volkswagen and since used by sister brand Audi. It already has 11 sponsored retailers and will appoint three more within the next couple of months in north Birmingham, Reading and Hull.
