Dan Seaman Motors, one of Cork’s most respected family-owned vehicle dealerships, has been appointed as part the official Isuzu dealer network for the region. The partnership combines the global strength of Isuzu’s world-class vehicle range with the trusted service and local insight of a family business rooted in the community.
Local businesses now have access to Isuzu’s award-winning D-Max pickups and popular N-Series and F-Series trucks, including 3.5-, 7.5- and 11.0-tonne GVW chassis, all backed by Dan Seaman Motors’ four decades of experience and dedication to customer support. The collaboration merges global engineering excellence with local expertise, ideally suited to the needs of businesses and fleet operators across County Cork and beyond.
The dealership’s modern two-storey showroom and 26,000 sq. ft. of indoor space create a welcoming environment for customers and a spacious working area for staff. Its six-bay workshop features state-of-the-art tools and diagnostic equipment capable of servicing a wide range of vehicles, from cars to middle-weight truck chassis – delivered by a local team that understands regional business needs.
Founded in 1985, Dan Seaman Motors has grown into one of the region’s leading vehicle dealerships, employing 20 dedicated staff, including seven fully qualified technicians. Now led by the three Seaman brothers, the company proudly continues the legacy of their father and founder, Dan Seaman, whose expertise in the motor trade spans more than 50 years. The addition of Isuzu marks an important expansion for Dan Seaman Motors, reinforcing the company’s position as a trusted one-stop destination for both business and personal motoring needs, while delivering the proven strength and reliability of the Isuzu brand to the region.
“This partnership with Isuzu is a natural fit,” said Dealer Principal, Ger Seaman. “We’ve built our reputation on trust, service, and supporting local businesses. Isuzu’s vehicles are renowned for their toughness and all-round capability, and together we are supremely confident of delivering award-winning vehicles with an aftersales commitment to match – for businesses in Cork and throughout the south west of Ireland.”
“Our Isuzu range is recognised globally for toughness, reliability and value-for-money,” said Karl Haughton, Head of Sales & Dealer Network for Isuzu in Ireland. “With Dan Seaman Motors renowned locally for integrity and customer focus, this franchise appointment brings together the best of both worlds – a partnership that will serve the regional business community for years to come.”
Isuzu vehicles are marketed and sold under franchise with Harris Group, Ireland’s largest privately owned commercial vehicle distributor. Harris Group operates a wide network of Isuzu dealerships across key locations including Dublin, Sligo, Cork, Wexford, Louth and Limerick.
