“Our team in Tauranga is very excited to be relocating to our new branch next week and welcoming our customers to a bespoke facility,” said Tim Geenty, branch manager of Penske New Zealand Tauranga.

“Our purpose-built infrastructure will allow us to deliver exceptional customer service now and into the future.”

Penske New Zealand country manager Brent Warner added that the new branch formed a key part of the organisation’s future plans.

“Further to the opening of our brand-new Christchurch facility in 2019, with our new Tauranga site we are demonstrating our commitment to the New Zealand market and our customers,” he said.

“Penske New Zealand has bold growth plans, and our investment in our people and locations is integral to that.”
