Hendy has expanded its Crawley operations with a new Ford car showroom and a Transit centre.

Hendy chief executive Paul Hendy said he was delighted to open the new facilities at Manor Royal which offer motorists the “perfect environment” for buying new and used vehicles.

The dealerships also offer full service facilities for private and business customers.

“Crawley is an important and strong market for Hendy and we are thrilled to be investing here in the town,” said Hendy.

“This great location is ideal for customers and means that we can provide everyone with the very best facilities whether they are looking for a new or used car or van or want their vehicle serviced.”

As part of the relaunch of Ford in Crawley, a new management team has been appointed with Wayne Backshall as new car sales manager.

Chris Bacon is the used car sales manager and David Offer is the service manager. In the Transit Centre, Adrian Couzens is the site manager.

“Having the right team in place is hugely important and we are delighted to confirm the new management team at Hendy Ford and the key people for the Transit Centre,” said Hendy.
