POPULAR or what? The Manchester regional broker dinner witnessed a great turnout of brokers and funders at Manchester’s Innside hotel, sourced by steering committee member Graham Prince of Neva Consultants.
The event, sponsored by Hyundai, took place with a drinks reception first followed by a three course meal in a private dining room.
Gareth Thomas from event sponsor Hyundai explained the next steps in the company’s immediate model strategy with the introduction of the Hyundai IONIQ PHEV and B-SUV model Kona, while also outlining the company’s future model and fuel choice strategy plans.
There was also a presentation from Premia Solutions’ Ian Simpson on the new range of insurance products that the company has developed specifically for the broker market, from GAP to alloy wheel refurbishment insurance which prompted a roundtable discussion on end of lease charges and customer retention policies.
Premia Solutions will be one of our speed networkers at the Leasing Broker Federation Conference on November 23, along with Fleet Procure which was also present in Manchester with new partner relations manager Arron Mogridge.
