Frank Keane Group purchases Maxwell Motors

MAXWELL
Motors, the long established motor dealership in Blackrock, recently purchased
by the Frank Keane Group, will become an authorised BMW dealership in November
2011. The new dealership will trade as ‘Frank Keane Blackrock’.

Frank
Keane’s decisiveness in acquiring the business rescued 20 jobs in the retail
motor industry and secures a premium location which has been associated with
the motor industry for over 70 years.
The addition of the BMW franchise is likely to lead to an increase in
employment in line with BMW’s growth in Ireland.

Frank
Keane will provide BMW sales, after sales, and financial services for customers
in the south east of the city, in addition to their existing successful BMW and
Mini dealership on the Naas Road.

Frank
said:

“I have been involved with the BMW brand since 1967 and am hugely excited
by this opportunity for us to further establish our strong reputation for
quality, service and value from this landmark premises in South Dublin.

Commenting
on the announcement, John Ives, Managing Director of BMW Ireland, added:

“It is great news that one of our key dealer
partners is investing further in the BMW franchise. This new dealership will
further enhance BMW’s presence in South Dublin.
