Suzuki GB has appointed Ian King as its new Business Development Manager, as it looks to further expand its dealer network.

Ian is keen to hit the ground running and continue Suzuki’s recruitment drive for new dealerships, with a specific focus on expanding the Japanese manufacturer’s new Small Bike franchise, which launched this year with the appointment of All2Wheelers in May.

Suzuki GB National Sales Manager, Jonathan Martin, announced the appointment, saying,"We’re delighted to welcome Ian to the Suzuki team and look forward to a successful and fruitful period ahead. We have been actively looking to expand our dealer network, but with a particular eye on increasing the number of small bike dealerships we have in London and the south east. With Ian onboard we’re positive we can continue to build on the platform we’ve formed this year."

Ian King commented,"It’s great to join a brand like Suzuki. I’ve joined at a busy time of the year with plenty happening, and I’m looking forward to enhancing the results already achieved in 2015. So far this year, Suzuki has increased its dealer network with 11 appointments, and I’m looking forward to helping with the company plans to expand even more in the coming months. We will be attending the Expo show again in January and I will be visiting potential new small bike dealerships prior to then as well."
