Another goodbye… and this one is a big one.
After more than 50 years in the motor trade, Bob has finally decided that the time has come to retire.
For those who don’t know Bob, he is Stuart and Ross’s dad and has been a familiar face to many of our customers for decades. Bob spent many years running his own successful business before stepping back and joining his sons here at Japex.
Bringing with him a wealth of experience and knowledge, Bob became an important part of the Japex family. Some of the customers who came with him have been trusting Bob with their vehicles since the very beginning of his career. That says everything about the relationships he built with people and the trust they had in him.
Bob has always been the sort of person who would go above and beyond for his customers. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he was always willing to help wherever he could. Whether it was putting his years of experience to good use, helping solve a problem, or simply having a chat with a customer he had known for years, Bob has always cared about the people as much as the cars.
His knowledge of the motor trade is something that simply can’t be replaced, and his patience, experience and dedication will be greatly missed by all of us.
