carnation auto, india’s first independent multi-brand auto solutions network, inaugurated four new pre-owned cars showrooms today; including two in karol bagh, one of the oldest and largest used car markets in the country and two in gurgaon - the millennium city. These showrooms will provide their customers with carnation certified as well as value cars. The opening of four showrooms in a single day, a new first, is carnation’s next big leap towards expanding its successful network further across the indian market and contribute towards consolidating the organized used car market in the country.
According to market estimates, the used car industry is expected to continue to grow at a rate of 18-20% per year, and the organized segment at a searing pace of 40% annually. Already a leader in the organized multi-brand pre-owned cars market, carnation is hopeful of helping grow the size and reach of the organized used car market, by targeting to expand to over 200 outlets in the next two years.
Through the franchise route, carnation aims to be more accessible to their customers by building a recognised pan-india brand across a wider network. Leveraging its existing nationwide robust car service and repair network, carnation will provide certified cars that have been subjected to a stringent 160 points quality check as well as in-house refurbishment process at world class facilities. Every carnation certified pre-owned car purchased from any of the 20 outlets spread across india, including cities like bangalore, delhi, gurgaon, hyderabad, mumbai, and pune to name a few, comes with labour free services, warranty, hassle-free documentation, and after sales support. Even customers keen to sell their cars to carnation will benefit by getting fair price, honest and transparent dealings, clean documentation, and attractive car exchange offers.
Speaking at the inauguration, mr. Jagdish khattar, chairman & managing director, carnation auto said, “we've established our reputation as a leader in the organized multi-brand used car segment. The franchise partnership format, now, gives us the opportunity to exponentially grow our network across india. We opened our first franchise in thane just last month, and today we have opened four new showrooms in ncr. Carnation is enabling the creation of a strong platform by leveraging technology and the web to help unorganized players, who have great potential, towards standardization, seen in the organized market. After successfully showing proof of concept with company owned stores, we are replicating the success with our partner stores as well."
