At Made for Trade, as well as building strong fenestration products, we’re also all about building strong relationships with our clients. And what better way to bond then hitting the racetrack together!
Last week, our team, including Managing Director Bradley Gaunt, Technical Director Ashley Gaunt, Commercial Operations Director Chris Wann, Head of Sales & Operations Mike Robinson, and Sales Team Manager Kevin Bell, hosted a thrilling track day for some of our most valued clients.
Perfect Conditions, Legendary Track
The weather was on our side, providing sunshine and clear skies – the ideal conditions for some fast laps, pushing the limits and experiencing the exhilaration of a track day. We descended upon the historic Brands Hatch Circuit, a true icon of British Motorsport. The former Formular 1 circuit and current BTCC circuit has iconic sections such as, Brabham Straight, Druids hairpin and the infamous Paddock Hill bend.
Mazda MX-5s
Our clients strapped themselves into 2 nimble and iconic Mazda MX-5s. This legendary two-seater convertible provided the perfect balance of power and handling, allowing everyone to enjoy the twists and turns of the track while honing their driving skills.
A Peak at SR1 Motor Racing
For an extra dose of motorsport excitement, Bradley and Ashley showcased their very own SR1 Motor Racing cars. These impressive machines are prepped and ready to compete in the Radical Cup at Oulton Park next weekend. Bradley and Ashley also took our customers out in an SR3 track car where they were able to enjoy a few hot laps with the Radical Cup duo at the wheel.
Building Relationships, One Lap at a Time
The track day was a fantastic opportunity to connect with our clients outside the everyday business setting. It was a chance to share our passion for motorsport, create lasting memories, and solidify the strong bonds we’ve built together.
A Huge Thank You!
We’d like to express our sincere gratitude to all the Made For Trade clients who joined us on the track: GAP Plastics, Custom Rooflights Ltd, Toughened Glass Systems, and Glazing Hub.
Here at Made For Trade, we believe in fostering strong partnerships built on trust and mutual respect. And sometimes, the best way to do that is by putting on a helmet and hitting the track together!
It was a great day had by all and while there is usually stiff competition in the market, these track days showcase the unified approach embodied my Made For Trade/ and our customers. We are looking forward to our next adventure out on track.
