The Auto Retail Network FRANCHISING REPORT, sponsored by MSXi, has been completely updated for 2016 and remains the only complete guide to the structure and sales performance of franchised auto retail networks in the UK.
Included in the 2016 report are return on sales figures for all major UK franchises, detailed analysis of fleet and retail registrations by brand, and new car sales forecasts from IHS Automotive through to 2017. Plus the latest NFDA Dealer Attitude Survey results and franchise value ratings.
NEW FOR 2016: THE FRANCHISING REPORT 2016 has been expanded to include the percentage of franchises that have changed ownership in each brand, senior staff turnover rates by brand and a listing of which groups hold the largest proportion of each brand’s network. The report also includes details of new car sales points and authorised repairers by carmaker, giving a complete picture of the current state of UK franchise networks. It also provides forecasts for the coming 12 months with details of network opportunities and projected vehicle throughput per retailer. The report also contains exclusive analysis of new car warranty and service plans – plus detailed background on the European new car market and a vital contacts section.
FRANCHISING REPORT 2016 data has been sourced directly from carmakers, other definitive industry sources and personally checked by Auto Retail Network researchers.
