VW van dealer to open new head office thanks to funding deal
A South West Volkswagen transporter sales and conversion specialist, offering fully bespoke vehicle customisation, is set to open a new headquarters with the support of a seven-figure support package.
The new 22,000 square foot site in Dorset has enabled the business to triple the size of its workshop, increase its van inventory and bring more services in-house, such as vehicle wrapping and service setting.
The funding from HSBC UK has also allowed Van Haven to introduce its new dedicated camper division, overseen by a specialist team.
The new location will now have the capacity to accommodate walk-in customers, paving the way for increased sale opportunities.
With the introduction of new services and increased stock, Van Haven has hired ten talented individuals from the Southwest community to support the business following this period of growth.
Loubelle Archer, brand and marketing director at Van Haven, sadid: “With thanks to HSBC UK, we are proud to be opening our brand-new site. HSBC UK has become a true extension of our team, providing us with the tools and resources needed to grow. We can’t wait to welcome our new and existing customers to our new headquarters and show them our latest Transporter innovations.”
David Butler, area director at HSBC UK, said: “It has been a pleasure to support Van Haven in its latest business venture. The new opening has not only facilitated further career opportunities for the Southwest community but will also better serve its customers who travel from all over the UK for Van Haven’s bespoke and specialist service.”
Van Haven will unveil its new premises on 29th June, inviting both new and existing customers to explore the expansive facility. It will also be hosting a VIP event on the 28th for its Owners’ Club.
