Marshall Motor Group to close Peugeot dealerships this month

Marshall Motor Group will close its Peugeot dealerships in Canterbury and Ashford on March 31. This follows the recent announcement of closures at Volkswagen dealerships in Horsham and Aylesbury. The closures were announced unexpectedly, leaving employees concerned about job security. Workers were informed that the decision was part of a downsizing effort, not due to performance issues. Stellantis UK, Peugeot's parent company, stated that the contract terminations were by mutual agreement. A consultation for alternative roles is ongoing, but no new positions have been offered yet.
