Call me cynical/I hope I’m proven wrong, but this stance has a very strong whiff of VC behind it....probably someone with a Harvard MBA has read somewhere that leveraging your distributors will be a good way to drive profits to the company...on the basis that even if you don’t sell any vehicles you have the dealership fees in the coffers.
Next thing is they’ll be giving Arnold Clarke a dealership agreement and renegotiating with Stratstones
