Volvo Car South Africa welcomes new MD
Volvo Car South Africa (VCSA) has welcomed Grant Locke as its new MD.
VCSA says Locke is tasked to drive the company’s growth strategy, network expansion plans and customer experience in a rapidly evolving local market – this as former (temporary) MD Tarcísio Triviño swooped in in October last year, cutting VCSA’s national dealer network to less than ten locations.
Locke previously served as the global head of Financial Services at Volvo Cars, leading a 60-person team in evolving the brand’s global financial services strategy.
Before joining Volvo, he worked in South Africa’s financial services sector with OUTvest, an investment service platform developed within OUTsurance.
“We are pleased to welcome Grant to Volvo Car South Africa,” says VCSA CFO Marishka Govender.
“His blend of commercial acumen and leadership in digital transformation will strengthen the business as we continue to accelerate our growth locally.”
VCSA says the company is now entering the next phase of its network restructuring and will focus on strengthening its national dealer network by rebuilding service coverage for existing clients and establishing a robust distribution and service network nationwide.
