MOTOR industry veteran Terence Donnelly, executive chairman of the north’s largest family-owned new and used vehicle retailer the Donnelly Group, has been selected as the 2018 recipient of the prestigious Volkswagen Diamond Pin, the highest individual award celebrating service to the VW brand.
The award, which was presented at the Volkswagen Group headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany, recognises a continuous display of operational excellence in sales, servicing, customer satisfaction and parts sales by VW dealers worldwide.
Terence said: “Since the beginning of our long-tanding partnership with Volkswagen, we have been committed to providing a superior customer service at each of our dealerships across Northern Ireland, from purchase through to after-ales care."
Described by Volkswagen as an ‘inspirational character’, Terence is a founding member of the Northern Ireland e-car consortium, which paved the way for the installation of electric car charge points throughout the region.
Donnelly Motor Group, which operates from nine locations, sells more than 18,000 vehicles a year and employs 700 staff.
