FORT VALLEY, Ga. – Blue Bird Corporation is pleased to recognize its 2014 Dealer Award recipients. Recently announced at the Blue Bird Dealer Meeting in Scottsdale, Arizona, 35 Dealers were honored for their exceptional sales and service performance.
Bryson Sales and Service of Washington took top honors as the 2014 Blue Bird Dealer of the Year. Throughout the past year, the dealership grew its already commanding market share and quadrupled its year-over-year propane bus sales, all while providing its customers with first-class customer service, parts support and training.
“Blue Bird has grown market share through our dealer channel every year since 2010,” said Phil Horlock, president and CEO of Blue Bird Corporation. “We commend our award-winning dealers for their market share growth and commitment to provide school districts and contractors across North America with the highest level of service and support. After just five years in business, Bryson Sales and Service of Washington achieved the prestigious title of 2014 Blue Bird Dealer of the Year. This is a well-deserved honor for the Bryson team.”
“2014 was a strong year for Bryson Sales and Service of Washington,” said Brandon Bryson, president. “We will continue to build on this success by staying close to our heritage of taking care of our customers. Our entire dealership wants to recognize the faith and trust that our customers have put in Bryson’s. It is only with that trust and hard work that we have achieved this honor.”
