Established in 1927
Aherns has been a car dealer for a long, long time having originally been set up by Jack Ahern in 1927 - in fact, there's a lovely history section of the Aherns website that is well worth a visit. Today, the group is run by Jack's descendants, Paul and Pat. The new Renault and Dacia showroom will be part of a five-acre Motor Store in Castleisland, which is just ten minutes outside Tralee.
Something for everyone
Commenting on the announcement Pat Ahern said, "We are delighted that Renault Group is joining us at our dealership in Castleisland. We are excited about the partnership as Renault Group has a vast and exciting product line up in passenger cars and vans and their new E-Tech electric and hybrid product is impressive - they really have something for everyone. Given their successful history in North Kerry we have no doubt that demand will be high and the new partnership will be a great success."
Steeped in history
Patrick Magee, Country Operations Director, Renault Group Ireland, said: "We are delighted at Renault Group to have Aherns Motor Group on board in the North Kerry region representing the Renault and Dacia brands. The business is steeped in history and both Paul and Pat's skills and experience complement our drive for exceptional customer care and professionalism. We look forward to many years of an excellent partnership".
