Škoda UK has named Vindis Škoda Bury St Edmunds as its 2025 Retailer of the Year, marking a second consecutive win for the Suffolk-based retailer.
The awards, announced at Škoda UK’s annual Retailer of the Year ceremony, recognise performance across the brand’s UK network. Vindis Škoda Bury St Edmunds also secured the Human Touch and Aftersales categories, becoming the first retailer to achieve this combination of wins.
Wings Škoda Peterborough finished second overall, while RRG Škoda Bolton took third place, repeating its result from the previous year.
The awards cover five core categories including New Car Sales, Used Car Sales, Fleet Sales, Human Touch and Aftersales.
RRG Škoda Bolton won the New Car Sales category, Johnsons Škoda Burntwood took Used Car Sales, and Garland Motors Škoda Aldershot secured the Fleet Sales award. Vindis Škoda Bury St Edmunds led the customer-focused categories, winning both Human Touch and Aftersales.
At the event, Škoda UK brand director Eric Boutin highlighted the brand’s growth, including reaching third place in Europe, the success of the Elroq as the second best selling EV in the region, and UK market share exceeding 4%.
The ceremony also recognised six Škoda Challenge 2025 finalists, who will represent the UK at the international finals in Krakow later this year. The initiative highlights talent across sales and aftersales roles within the network.
