One-on-One with
Hi-Q Honcho,
Sean Harrison
In keeping with the overall theme of this issue in
which we take a dedicated look at what’s in store
for the passenger tyre market, we decided it was
time to pay homage to the man currently at the
helm of Hi-Q – the successful retail franchise
that was benchmarked in a recent survey.
Sean Harrison is no stranger to the motor
industry. His passion for marketing and his
experience in the motor trade and in franchising,
spans 19 years, courtesy of a number of posts
within the motor sector, among them, a stint
as Marketing Director of PG Glass prior to
his current appointment. We asked him what
drew him to the tyre retail business and for his
thoughts on the current economic crisis.
