The Vehicle Remarketing Association is to run a free seminar to provide a complete briefing of the major trends and legislative changes facing the car and van remarketing industry.

The seminar will spotlight the latest industry challenges.

Taking place on 23 November at the Leicester Marriott hotel, the four-hour seminar on ‘The Challenges of 2018’ will include key speakers such as Mike Allen of Zeus Capital, who will look at the current state of the market; Jonathan Butler of Geldards on the implications of GDPR for the remarketing sector; Louise Wallis of the National Franchise Dealer Association on the growing problem of clocking; and Tim Hudson of Cox Automotive on how remarketing companies can handle ever larger used vehicle volumes.

Glenn Sturley, chair at the VRA, said: “2018 looks set to be a challenging year for the remarketing sector for all parties involved. The market, while still relatively buoyant, is perhaps more volatile than it has been for some time, while there are a range of legislative and other changes underway that will have definite impact on how we all do business.

“This seminar, which takes the place of our usual annual conference, is intended to fully brief those working in remarketing on the key facts that they need to know and, we are sure, will provide them with much material that will be of use to them as they plan for next year.”

Attendance at the seminar is free to anyone who is working in any part of the automotive sector. More details can be obtained by e-mailing [email protected].
