Hopwood Celebrates

The finale of the salesman of the year dinner, saw
no less than five men celebrating a year of hard
effort when they received their awards for sales-
persons of the year.

Following the amalgamation of the Ferodo, Duron, AE, Payen,
Champion and Wagner brands under one roof at the Bradford
LDC, awards were presented under three categories: CV – which
went to Duncan Watson, Engine – which went to Merveyn Hopton
and Car (because of the size of the Car team, there were also two
runners-up prizes), with Ken Jephcott and Barry Chapman in
third and second, runners-up to Steve Hopwood.
Steve Hopwood collected the magnificent sales sword as
the overall winner.
The final figures showed that overall sales were 99% of
target against the December forecast – an excellent result in
what is a very tough marketplace.

Sales director, Robin Shaw, presents the salesperson
of the year sword to overall winner, Steve Hopwood.
