Choose Leisure Grows With Leadership Transition

Near Canterbury, the showroom and outdoor space feature up to 80 vehicles, alongside a 10-bay workshop following the expansion of its service facilities.

The company has also built a broad portfolio of motorhome franchises, beginning with Auto-Sleepers in 2013 and expanding to include brands such as Carthago, Laika, Malibu and Swift.

The key shift in personnel came last year, with founders, Paul and Jenny Santos, handing over day-to-day operations to a new senior management team. Managing Director Dave Williams, Service Manager Charlie Joiner and Finance Director Lisa Canning now lead the business, bringing a combined 60 years of industry experience.

Founded in 2008 by Paul and Jenny Santos, the company began with just three staff and six motorhomes. Within a year, it introduced a brokerage model, selling vehicles on behalf of private owners, which went on to form the backbone of the business.

The company says its philosophy continues to be rooted in patience and customer care, reflected in its tortoise logo, a symbol of taking time to make the correct choices.
