February 28th 2023

McElligott’s Tralee Ltd. was recognized with an award at the first-ever Kia European Dealer of the Year Awards. As part of Kia's unique worldwide dealer excellence recognition program, these new, prestigious awards are only granted to the top Kia dealers in Europe. Dealers receive recognition based on their exceptional performance in sales, local market share, staff development, customer service, facilities, and training throughout the preceding year. Out of 1,640 dealerships worldwide, McElligott’s of Tralee is the only Irish dealer to get the accreditation, one of just 28 in Europe.

McElligotts' managing director Declan O'Hara appreciated winning the award by stating, "McElligotts has been in business in Kerry since 1870 and has always had a reputation for providing the best customer service."  This award demonstrates McElligotts' ongoing culture, and I would like to thank the entire team for their hard work and dedication to providing excellent client service.

Giving thanks to the McElligotts group Ronan Flood, Managing Director of Kia Ireland, stated, "This new award from Kia recognises outstanding achievement in all areas of business, not just sales." To be eligible for this honor, a dealer must also demonstrate excellence in aftersales, customer satisfaction, and dealer standards. Declan worked very hard, as did Patrick and the whole McElligotts team – they are deserved winners”.
