Aston Martin Opening Two Dealerships in US

Despite reports that Aston Martin is in financial trouble, the British automaker is opening two new dealerships in the U.S.

With the addition of two new showrooms, Aston Martin will have a total of 46 retail stores across the Americas. The new dealers are part of a plan to grow the brand’s dealership presence by 21 percent in North America. The first store will be Aston Martin Minneapolis and will be led by Morries Automotive Group, a new partner for the manufacturer. A temporary facility will open in Hopkins, Minnesota while work is underway for a permanent showroom in Golden Valley, Minnesota that will open this summer

The other dealership will be Aston Martin Nashville with the initial facility opening in Franklin, Tennessee while a new permanent Aston Martin showroom is being developed in Brentwood that will follow before the end of the year. According to Aston Martin, both facilities are now open for business immediately.

“In both Minneapolis and Nashville we have found the right partners who share our passion for Aston Martin and will help develop our brand awareness across the country by filling two key open points for us in the North American market,” said Julian Jenkins, President of Aston Martin The Americas. “Both appointments strengthen our network and in a period of hugely significant investment for Aston Martin, further ready us for an exciting future.”
