The Toyota TradePro programme, launched last year, continues to prove successful with plans now in place to expand both the geographical coverage and the range of products featured. The programme provides garages and bodyshops with fast and effective access to competitively priced genuine Toyota replacement parts and was initially offered through dealers in Dublin and the surrounding counties. 

Glenn O’Reilly, Toyota Aftersales Commercial Manager, comments, "The reaction from garages and bodyshops continues to be very positive. We have seen many motor trade businesses reengage with their local Toyota Dealership parts department and they are doing increasing level of business.”

Glenn says there are two main reasons why increasing numbers of garages are utilising the TradePro service. He points out, "Our dealer parts teams have expert in depth knowledge of Toyota parts and so can make sure that the right parts are always identified and supplied. Mechanics also like the peace of mind of knowing that these are genuine Toyota parts that will be a perfect fit and match to the original quality component on the vehicle. Added to this many have been pleasantly surprised by the parts prices which offer excellent all round value.”

The TradePro programme covers; service kits, clutch kits, brake pads and discs, shock absorbers, batteries and service consumables and this coverage will be expanded further to other product groups in the coming months.  The programme also includes regular special offers, promotions and giveaways to provide a further positive for buyers.

Glenn also says that the programme will be widened to other areas of Ireland shortly.
