CONSTRUCTION of a £6.2m car showroom in Cheshire Oaks has begun.

Family-owned business TG Holdcroft is building the new Honda and Hyundai dealerships at Cheshire Oaks.

The development involves the consolidation of the Chester and Wirral territories for Honda and Holdcroft.

North West company Williams Tarr Group have been appointed to construct the dealerships, which will bring other benefits to the area.

Chris Greenhall, franchise director for Holdcroft Honda, said: “We’re really excited to be expanding into the area.

“The consolidation means we can offer brand new, state-of-the-art facilities and boost the local economy by bringing business to the area and by offering additional skilled employment opportunities.”

Holdcroft Group brings the promise of up to 60 new jobs, a turnover in excess of £200m, and 50 years of experience.

Mr Greenhall added: “This move highlights the group’s commitment to invest within the Cheshire area and the Honda franchise.

“The Holdcroft Group has Honda dealerships already established in Crewe and Stoke on Trent. Our Hoole Road site, Chester Honda, will continue to deliver all the needs for our Honda customers until the opening of our new site very early next year.”
