General Motors has recognized six dealers from the Middle East with the prestigious annual Grandmasters Award. 

The global award, which is presented to outstanding dealers of Chevrolet, GMC and Cadillac vehicles, recognizes the best-of-the-best GM dealers across the globe. 

The aim of the Grandmasters Award is to raise levels of customer care in terms of sales and aftersales service to ensure that GM’s dealers provide the best customer ownership experience in the region. 

“Providing a range of award-winning cars, pickups, crossovers and SUVs is not enough to maintain our success in this challenging and demanding market,” said John Stadwick, President and Managing Director of GM Middle East Operations. “We have to ensure that all GM customers in the Middle East receive a world-class shopping, buying and ownership experience. And, our dealers have worked tirelessly to provide a customer experience that is second-to-none in the region.” 

The six winning dealers from the region were: Abdullatif Alissa Automotive Company from Saudi Arabia; Behbehani and Alamana Industries from Kuwait; Rasamny Younis Motor Company (RYMCO) from Lebanon; Leading Vehicles Company (LVC) from Jordan; and Al Mansour Automotive Company (MAC) from Iraq. 

“All the Grandmasters Award winners are the best-of-the-best dealers. They have exceeded their customer satisfaction targets and made an invaluable contribution to the success of GM Middle East during 2010 and the four months of 2011, which has seen our sales increase by 19%,” added Stadwick.
