Toyota Ireland is delighted to announce two new additions to its Dealer network in Cork. Macroom Motors (Cork City) and Grandon Car Sales (Glanmire) have been announced as new dealers.

These strategic appointments for Toyota in Cork, follow Toyota Ireland's decision in June 2010 not to renew their current dealer agreements with the Keary Motor Group for both the Toyota and Lexus franchises.

Cogans of Carrigaline and O'Callaghan Motor Works of Kanturk will continue to be key pillars within the new network.

Simultaneously, Macroom Motors (Cork City) has also been awarded the Lexus franchise for the Cork region, taking over from the Keary Motor Group.

Commenting David Shannon, Managing Director Toyota Ireland said: 'We are very excited by the prospect of opening 2 new dealerships in the Cork area. Macroom Motors, who have been a Toyota Dealer since the franchise came to Ireland in the early 1970's will be opening a state of the art premises for both the Toyota and Lexus franchises in the city while maintaining their dealership in Macroom.

'Grandon Car Sales, who are in the motor business since 1975 and have an outstanding reputation in Cork, will be bringing Toyota to their premises in Glanmire'
