500 square metres
The first fruit of that partnership will be a major new dealership located on the Cork Road — Waterford city’s ‘motor mile’ — which has been designed by EMD Architects. It will include a modern showroom and 500 square metres of space to display and sell Volkswagen passenger cars and Volkswagen commercial vehicles.
20 ramp service workshop
There will also be a workshop area with no fewer than 20 ramps, which will increase the availability of servicing for VW owners in the southeast.
The move will support up to 20 jobs, and JAB Auto Holdings has said that it will be looking to recruit both sales and aftersales staff for passenger and commercial vehicles.
