Triple Triumph for Barloworld Volkswagen Mascot at Volkswagen's 2011 Dealer of the Year Awards

BOTANY, AUSTRALIA – Feb 14, 2012: Volkswagen Group Australia has officially crowned Barloworld Volkswagen Mascot as Volkswagen’s National Dealer of the Year 2011 at a gala event in Sydney on Saturday.

Volkswagen Group Australia’s Managing Director, Ms Anke Koeckler, handed over the award to Mr Darryl Pribut, Dealer Principal of Barloworld Volkswagen Mascot, who earlier in the evening had collected the “Commercial Vehicle Dealer of the Year”, and the “Central Region Dealer of the Year” awards.

“Barloworld Volkswagen Mascot performed incredibly well and is a deserving winner,” Ms Koeckler commented on the gala night. “However, recognition should be given to the entire Volkswagen dealer network. 2011 was a busy year for all of us and we would not have been able to achieve the sales figures we did without the commitment and hard work from all of our dealers.”

A total of seven awards including regional categories were announced, with Albany Volkswagen winning its third consecutive “Western Region Dealer of the Year” trophy.
