Bates Motors Shelly Beach is Isuzu’s first 100% black-owned dealership in South Africa, with a 65% black women ownership and is a proud Level 1 BBBEE Entity.
The dealership won not one but three national accolades at the premium Isuzu Gala Awards held in Cape Town last week.
The Shelly Beach branch is thrilled to be awarded the National Medium Category, Truck Dealer of the Year for 2023/24, 1st place in both the Department of the Year for LCV – Sales – Medium (Bakkies) and Department of the Year for CV – Sales – Medium (Trucks).
These prestigious awards wouldn’t be possible without the dedication of their incredible sales team backed by their factory-trained After-sales, parts and service teams.
“The staff’s hard work and commitment to excellence shone through in every interaction with our valued customers. Bates Motors Shelly Beach stood out among all the top Isuzu Medium Category dealerships in the country, bearing testament to our dedication. An accomplishment to be truly proud of. It has been a challenging year and a competitive market, but the staff have pulled out all stops and have shown that as a team working together, anything is possible,” said Dealer Principal Philip Hawkins.
He congratulated the owners, Sipho and Fortunate Mdanda, on the achievement, and also thanks them for their ongoing support to their team.
The Bates Motors Shelly Beach team thanks Isuzu SA for the recognition, and most importantly, the clients for their ongoing support.
The team looks forward to continuing to provide exceptional service and the best Isuzu trucks to their customers.
The professional team at Bates Motors Shelly Beach awaits your visit.
