It's always important to give credit where credit is due. During the recent “Skid Steer Revolution” small platform skid steer launch event held March 6-8, 2012, in Savannah, Ga., JCB recognized several North American dealerships as “Dealers of Excellence.” In addition, JCB recognized three dealerships for their outstanding achievements during 2011.
JCB determines the recipients of its North American Dealer of Excellence awards based on the following criteria: market share; retail performance vs. goal; parts SOE; parts sales improvement; sales and service training; and dealer development and re-branding. Each of the six top-performing dealerships was named a “Dealer of Excellence.”
Recipients of JCB’s 2011 "Dealer of Excellence" Awards include:
- Liftech JCB (Syracuse, N.Y.; Lancaster, N.Y.; Rochester, N.Y.; Vestal, N.Y.; Schenectady, N.Y.; Burlington, Vt. and Bloomfield, Conn.)
- YES JCB (Milwaukee, Wis. and Madison, Wis.)
- Walsh JCB (Prospect, Pa. and Ebensburg, Pa.)
- JCB of Georgia (Pooler, Ga.; Kennesaw, Ga. and Augusta, Ga.)

In addition to presenting the Dealer of Excellence awards, JCB also recognized the following dealerships for their outstanding achievements:
- AES JCB, Best Agricultural Dealer (Sabina, Ohio and Shreve, Ohio)
- Dougherty JCB, Most Improved Dealer (Greenville, S.C.; Charleston, S.C.; Columbia; S.C.; Raleigh, N.C.; Greenville, N.C. and Greensboro, N.C.)

Van Clarkson, vice president of sales for JCB North America says these awards demonstrate how vital the company’s dealers are to its overall success. “Our JCB dealers are such an important piece of our business and are the best at what they do,” Clarkson says. “It’s exciting to see them achieve such high levels of growth and success during 2011. With the recent launch of the full line of revolutionary JCB skid steers, we look forward to even greater success from our dealers in 2012.”
