Shropshire-based caravan dealership Salop Leisure is celebrating after it broke its caravan and motorhome sales record in March and April.
The popular outlet saw sales rose by 20 per cent in the two-month period compared to 2011 levels, with springtime buyers flocking to the retailer’s centres in Shrewsbury, Machynlleth and Stourport.
Demand has been high from first-time buyers as well as seasoned caravanners and Salop was hit with such a rush that it is now looking to add to the number of second-hand vehicles it stocks to meet customers’ needs, ShropshireLive.com reported
Such is the need for new pre-owned vehicles that Salop has now launched a new advertising campaign in a bid to encourage owners to part-exchange their tourers.
“We are looking to add to our selection of pre-owned tourers and motorhomes due to record sales over the past two months,” sales manager Nick Jackson told the news provider.
“Because we have had so many first time buyers, our usual supply of part exchange models hasn’t been sufficient to meet the high demand.”
