Scorpion’s strengths and capabilities as a unique
UK manufacturer of a very wide range of automotive equipment servicing a varied
European wide customer base of OEM, Corporate and reseller networks to name a few.
Our thanks go to the M.E.N staff for a first class event at a first class venue, well done.

GK Returns….With a sting in his tail |
 After 12 months out of the
industry, Gary Kirby has returned to
the arena he knows best after 24 years in the industry and more
specifically 16 years experience of vehicle tracking products and dealer
network management he is happy to be
back.
He says: My new role as Head of Vehicle Tracking
Division with Scorpion Automotive offers a fantastic opportunity to make a
new mark within an industry that I know inside out. The independent dealer
channel will play a pinnacle part in not only the launch of a very
exciting new product, but an ongoing business priority for Scorpion going
forward. The opportunity to be able to apply 16 years of experience into a
new product design is proving very exciting when you add to that the very
latest technology available as well as our own research, development and
production team at Chorley here in the UK. This will enable the production
of an efficient, profitable and dealer friendly tracking solution which
will be further outlined in product launch seminars in due course. In the
meantime I look forward to visiting the dealer network to gain any
thoughts you may have leading up to launch.
