Motor Trade Radio

HEADLINES POD Philip and Curtis have the big car retailing stories and all the chatter that matters on this week's Motor Trade Radio podcast, powered by Cazoo & Motors.     Plus, special guest Graeme Potts, founder of Eden Motor Group  

INDUSTRY LEGEND ALERT! For this special Motor Trade Radio weekday episode – powered by Cazoo & Motors – Curtis and Philip are joined by Graeme Potts, founder and CEO of Eden Motor Group.   With the group celebrating its 18th anniversary, we thought it would be a good opportunity to catch up with Graeme to chat about the past, present and future of one of the UK's most highly regarded franchised dealer groups.   Launched as a solus Vauxhall business, Eden Motor Group is now a true multi-franchise group, Eden continues to represent Vauxhall as well as Mazda, Hyundai, MG, Skywell, Peugeot and Leapmotor. It also has a network of authorised repairers and approved used centres.   In our wide-ranging interview, Graeme ("I'm unashamedly a retailer") also discusses his approach to OEM representation, taking on emergent brands and driving growth through the business.   And shares how the March plate change performed for the group and why he feels optimistic about trading in Q2 despite global headwinds.   He also provides an update on the Institute of the Motor Industry, which he has been chairing since last June, and industry charity Ben, where he is a board adviser.   Available now on your podcast feed or here   #automotive
