Automotive public relations\u00a0and marketing\u00a0agency, Chicane has scooped the \u2018Industry Partner of the Year\u2019 award, as voted for by its peers\u00a0and\u00a0the\u00a0industry in general.<\/p>\n

Chicane specialises in the automotive aftermarket and has been serving the industry for more than 21 years. It represents a portfolio of companies that includes several household names, as well as a number of emerging brands and firms.<\/p>\n

The business\u00a0also represents\u00a0PR clients outside the aftermarket, including\u00a0a number of\u00a0sporting teams, and\u00a0clients in the insurance, vehicle rental,\u00a0motorsport, agricultural, plant\u00a0and charity sectors.<\/p>\n

Chicane was up against\u00a0tough opposition\u00a0for the award: the\u00a0Independent Garage Association, the IAAF (Independent Automotive Aftermarket Federation)\u00a0and insurance company Hugh J Boswell – all of which have large\u00a0membership and client lists.<\/p>\n

The Chicane team, based just outside London in Kings Langley,\u00a0Hertfordshire,\u00a0consists of Gary Barak, Simon Maurice, Steve Coombes, Mary-Jane Coombes and Donna Clapp.<\/p>\n

Chicane director, Gary Barak, said: \u201cWe are so delighted, very pleasantly surprised\u00a0and humbled with this award, and as we were up against such established businesses. We are very proud of our reputation and the service and support we give to our clients, but from a numbers perspective we really\u00a0didn\u2019texpect to win!<\/p>\n

\u201cSo,\u00a0we\u00a0are thrilled to bits and would\u00a0like\u00a0to thank every single person who voted for us.\u00a0It\u2019s\u00a0a remarkable award and one we\u2019re honoured to accept.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone at Chicane is really passionate about the industry we serve and the work we do,\u201d enthused Chicane MD, Simon Maurice. \u201cHopefully, this passion\u00a0shines through\u00a0in\u00a0the level of service we offer and the quality of work we present. That\u2019s why winning this award really means so much to us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fellow director Steve Coombes added: \u201cIt\u2019s been a tough year for the aftermarket\u00a0and the world in general\u00a0and during that time, we were dedicated to ensuring our clients continued to get their messages out there and we feel like we\u2019re\u00a0getting\u00a0back to\u00a0as close to\u00a0normal as an industry\u00a0as we can expect, which is\u00a0really good\u00a0to see.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince the start of this\u00a0year, we\u2019ve welcomed\u00a0several\u00a0new clients to our client portfolio, we continue to grow and\u00a0excited to see what the future brings for us!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
