Suzuki buys out 50 dealers: Brand cuts low-volume dealerships, says no more cuts ahead

摘要

About 50 Suzuki dealers have accepted buyout offers from the company in the past five months as part of a plan to cut the brand's worst-performing stores. Struggling American Suzuki Motor Corp. launched the voluntary program in March to encourage low-volume dealerships to close. The brand now has about 300 dealerships, says Gene Brown, the marketing vice president. That's down from 354 in March.
