Shropshire motor dealers, Furrows, welcomed a very special guest to their Telford dealership.

The company was chosen as one of the first dealers in the UK to receive brand new Kia corporate branding, and the showroom on Haybridge Road has been transformed.

It now has the all-new Kia red signage, plenty of space for the very latest Kia models to be displayed including the brand new Rio and Optima, and a dedicated sales area with information on everything Kia has to offer.

And to mark the unveiling, Kia UK managing director Michael Cole visited the dealership to officially open the new-look sales area.

Group Sales Manager, Dave Farthing, said: "We were delighted that Michael visited our dealership, and we were also very pleased to welcome Simon Huh who is the CEO of Kia UK.

"To be one of the very first dealerships to receive the new branding is a real honour and just shows how highly Kia UK rates our sales performance.

"We have hit all the targets we have been set and we're very grateful to our loyal customers who have been so keen to buy the latest Kia models."

During Mr Cole's visit to Telford, the annual Kia UK convention took place at The International Centre.

"Over 600 Kia dealers from all over the UK attended and it was a great opportunity to network with other representatives to discuss the latest business trends and unveil the exciting new models in the Kia range," said Dave.
