About Cambria - www.cambriaautomobilesplc.com
Cambria was established in 2006 with a strategy to build a balanced motor retail group, through close cooperation with its manufacturer partners and the acquisition and turnaround of underperforming businesses.
The Group now comprises 28 dealerships, representing 45 franchises and 18 brands, in a balanced portfolio spanning the high luxury, premium and volume segments.
The Group operates dealerships across England with a geographical spread from the North West through the Midlands, down to Kent in the South East and across as far as Exeter in the South West, trading under local brand names, including, County Motor Works, Dees, Doves, Grange, Invicta, Motorparks and Pure Triumph.
Cambria's brand portfolio currently comprises Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin, Chrysler Jeep, Citroen, Dacia, Ford, Fiat, Honda, Jaguar, Land Rover, Mazda, Nissan, Renault, Seat, Triumph, Vauxhall and Volvo.
The Group's success in turning around underperforming dealerships has enabled Cambria to build a strong balance sheet. As a result, the Group is now in a position to consider acquisitions which are earnings enhancing from the outset, further strengthening Cambria's brand portfolio mix and progressing towards its stated ambition to create a Group with annual revenues of over £1 billion.
