Stefan Thyssen, Managing Director, MAN Truck & Bus UK Ltd, commented: “I’d like to congratulate both the shortlisted businesses and the overall winners of this year’s MAN Truck & Bus UK Ltd’s Dealer of the Year Awards.

Their outstanding work, commitment to delivering exceptional customer service and dedication to the MAN brand, has simply shone through. Both have shown a great desire and willingness to strive for better business practices as well as constantly focussing on putting the customer and their needs, at the heart of everything they do.”

Upon announcing the category - MAN Truck & Bus UK Ltd’s 2023 Dealer of the Year, Stefan commented, “This is a special moment as we have never had such a close point score in the history of the awards, it simply shows how even the points tally and business commitment was throughout the year.
With almost 300 miles between the joint winners, WG Davies Swansea, in South Wales, and DSV Commercials, in North East Lincolnshire, when reviewing the scores it was neck and neck throughout the year and this is why we are thrilled to jointly award WG Davis (Swansea) and DSV Commercials as our 2023 Dealers of the Year.

They demonstrated an unwavering determination and enthusiastic approach to improving all facets of their businesses and over the last twelve months, they have individually shown true dedication in delivering outstanding levels of customer service and support.
