More than 60 representatives from dealerships all over the UK were welcomed to Oulton Hall near Leeds, recently, for the annual Jacuzzi hot tub conference. The Jacuzzi retailers were given statistics on another record-breaking year of sales for the brand, which reported £1.6 million growth in 2014.
Commercial director, Duncan Simcox praised the efforts of the dealers – 16 of which grew by more than 20 per cent last year.
“Our growth last year was the biggest level of growth that we’ve ever achieved and we’re grateful to our dealers for their involvement,” said Duncan. “Two of our dealers opened up second stores and two new dealers that came on board hit the £100k trading target within their first year.”
He added: “What’s more, in the first five months of this year we’re already up by 17 per cent on figures from the same time last year, which is a great start and as a team we want to push forward.”
