NEW OWNER FOR RENAULT DEALERSHIP MITCHELLS LOWESTOFT

Renault dealership Mitchells in Lowestoft has entered the latest phase in its history with a new owner this week.

The dealership on Long Road has been bought by current dealer principal Matthew Huke-Jenner from the Pullum family who have run the company since the mid 1960s. Mr Huke-Jenner has been with the company for 24 years after starting his career there as a trainee sales executive.

The company itself was started before the Second World War at Pakefield, taking on the Renault franchise in 1974 and moving to its present location in 1979.

Last year, the site underwent extensive refurbishment which made it bigger with more parking for customers and a fresh new look.

Mr Huke-Jenner said: “We’re delighted that Lee Pullum and his family remain on the board and as a vital part of the running of Mitchells. It’s a pleasure to play a part in the continued success of this family business which owes its longevity to strong community ties and the customer service ethos.”
