The first eight firms to receive the prestigious National Caravan Council (NCC) Distributor Status accolade have been revealed at a special celebration held last week (5 September).
This new NCC Approved Distributor scheme is one of three new consumer focused initiatives designed to raise standards of customer service and professionalism across the caravan and motorhome industry.
It is hoped that, by establishing a new Consumer Code of Practice, members of the NCC will take heed of how best to operate and compete in the ever-expanding world of caravanning and camping, taking note of consumer rights at all times.
The eight firms to receive the recognition were: Orchard Caravans Ltd, Bridlington Caravan Centre, Lake Coast and Dale Leisure, Parklands Leisure, Keat Farm Ltd, Salop Leisure Ltd, Southern Counties Leisure and PM Leisure Homes Ltd.
These companies were presented with certification of their Approved status at The Lawns in Cottingham by NCC vice chairman Colin Crewther.
Commenting on the awards, NCC director general John Lally said: “Meeting the code is a significant achievement and demonstrates each businesses professionalism and commitment to best practice.”
