Red Letter Day winner chooses shopping prize

Hammond Group’s tyre department manager Keith Manders is taking his wife on a shopping spree after winning a £500 Red Letter Day experience in the national promotion organised by Grouptyre, the UK’s leading independent tyre wholesaler and exclusive UK distributor of value brand Federal.

Having signed up to take part in the initiative and purchased Federal tyres during the second phase of the promotion, Hammond Tyres automatically received entries into the prize draw based on the tyres purchased.

“I was genuinely surprised by the win and after chatting with my wife about how to spend the voucher, we have organised a House of Fraser shopping experience including the services of a personal shopper,” says Keith.

Halesworth-based Hammond Tyres is part of the Hammond Group, which operates several car franchises, including Ford, Land Rover, Nissan and Subaru, as well as a commercial vehicle centre, the Car Save multi-franchise used car business and one of the largest bodyshops in the UK. It also provides vehicle rental and breakdown services and has been a major customer of Grouptyre member We Sell Tyres (Wholesale) for some years.

In addition to operating a fast fit retail tyre centre, Hammond Tyres supplies tyres to Hammond Group – including the dealer workshops and company vehicles – and to local garages. Keith says Federal is the chosen economy brand as it fits well into the marketplace the business serves.

Grouptyre will soon be announcing details of its 2010 promotion in conjunction with Federal. For further information on Grouptyre’s ‘one stop’ tyres solution call 01928 706166 or visit www.grouptyre.co.uk
