Nissan Middle East awarded Al Masaood Automobiles for ‘Exemplary performance in Sales and Customer Experience in FY17’. The authorized distributor for Nissan was awarded this prestigious title for increasing its market share in 2017 and showcasing impressive customer service standards in the automobile industry.

The award aims to highlight the achievements of the company’s distributors, recognize sales efforts, outstanding customer and aftersales service as well as the commitment to achieving the highest ranking in market surveys.

As part of continued efforts to remain leaders, Nissan conducts an annual Competitive Customer Satisfaction Survey to benchmark sales & service processes against competitors in main markets to measure showroom experience, sales staff competency, delivery process, delivery timing and after post delivery services. As a result, Al Masaood Automobiles ranked #1 in the FY17 survey in both sales & service.

Since 1984 to 2018, Al Masaood Automobiles has sold hundreds of thousands of Nissans and more recently have been acclaimed for being the first distributor in the Gulf region to successfully roll out Nissan’s new retail concept at Khalidiya showroom in Abu Dhabi.
