EAKIN BROTHERS CELEBRATE OFFICIAL OPENING OF NEW MAYDOWN SHOWROOMS

When you’ve been in business for 96 years, you make a lot of friendships and relationships, as was recently underlined when Eakin Bros officially opened their new state of the art showroom at Carakeel Drive in Maydown, Londonderry.

Since 1923, Eakin Bros, have been powering business from tractors to pickups, offering a level of service that has always been second to none. More than 350 guests attended the official launch of the new site which specialises in Isuzu pick-ups, quality cars and Brian James Trailers. Guests included representatives from International Motors (Isuzu UK) who travelled from England to join in the celebrations. Also there were members of Lowry Building & Civil Engineering, who were contractors for the new showrooms. “Thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years and the friendships we have created. We would also like to thank all our customers for coming along to support us at the opening of our new showroom.” Eakin Bros has come a long way since it began life in Claudy village 96 years ago, when its founder Samuel David Eakin opened his doors in 1923; his son Jack Eakin would later become chairman of the company. Today, Jack’s sons, John and Peter, are Dealer Principals of the two sites operated by the company, in Claudy and Maydown. With loyal and long-serving staff members, Eakin Brothers have been able to put customer satisfaction as a priority and always try to offer the best service possible. Testament to the company’s continuing success is the fact that most of their loyal customers are on first name terms with members of staff and often just pop in for a chat!
