The Holt Headliner “To grow our business by delighting our customers.”
Following on from a busy 2014 we’re looking forward to ‘growing our business by delighting our customers’ in 2015. As Depot Manager for Exeter and Bodmin I firstly want to congratulate Jeff Morford for his long-term service and dedication to Holt JCB. We have a number of long serving team members in Exeter and Bodmin and we believe that this contributes to our constant drive for excellent customer service across the depots. We have now had the new signage put up in both depots, which has refreshed the buildings for 2015. Our sales team have provided brilliant feedback from the recent JCB Sales Conference and look forward to telling our
customers, about all the fantastic new machines due to be unveiled throughout 2015. We even have an exciting app launch coming soon! There are some great aftermarket and machinery deals coming up over the next few months, kicking off with the next parts and service offers from JCB. So keep your eyes peeled for the March edition to take advantage of these great offers. Andy Keefe - Depot Manager for Bodmin and Exeter
