A SET of industrial units in Sheffield are to be transformed into a new Mazda dealership.
The Burrows Motor Company has submitted a planning application to Sheffield County Council for permission to open a new garage on Penistone Road in Hillsborough.
MD of the Burrows Motor Company, Steve Burrows, plans to build a brand new car showroom, including a parts distribution area and a car servicing and MOT area.
According to the The Star, a planning document submitted with the application said: ‘Steve prides himself on investing in local areas and providing employment for local people.
‘His success has been growing as a result of providing excellent customer service and retaining local custom over many years.’
If the plans to convert the site into a dealership are approved, it would be one of the first major Mazda outlets in the UK to receive the new corporate identity makeover.
The application states: ‘The development will be a positive addition to the current businesses on Penistone Road and will strengthen trade in the area and provide valuable additional skilled employment to local people.’
A decision is on the application expected by the end of March.
