Sci-Fleet Hino Gold Coast has won a national award, being crowned Regional Dealer of the Year by international truck manufacturer Hino Australia.
"After a tumultuous few years which saw last year's event hosted virtually, it was important for our dealers to gather together and celebrate all of the achievements in 2022," said Sam Suda, President and CEO of Hino Australia.
"For Sci-Fleet Hino Gold Coast, this is their first Dealer of the Year award, which is a feat the whole team should be congratulated for."
The accolades didn't stop there for Sci-Fleet Hino Gold Coast, which also won the Sales Excellence (Regional) title for the second year and the Service Excellence (Regional) title.
Sci-Fleet Hino Gold Coast Dealer Principal Craig Andersson said:
"I am incredibly proud to receive this award on behalf of the hard-working team at Sci Fleet Gold Coast."
Against the backdrop of the Intercontinental Brisbane's Lagoon Beach the 2022 Hino Dealer of the Year awards were held on Saturday 24th February, in a ceremony hosted by Hino Ambassador Neil Crompton and attended by 260 guests.
On display at the awards was a replica of the Hino-sponsored #20 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, which will be raced by Team 18's Scott Pye at the Thrifty Newcastle 500 on 10-12 March, 2023, as part of Hino Australia's long-standing partnership with Supercars Team 18.
