Speaking on the sidelines of the event, Premier Auto Lifestyle Consultant Tyron Mackie clarified on the nature of the company’s yearly golf festivity.
“It’s the company’s annual golf day where we invite our prospective and current customers with the intention to entertain them while they also get the chance to compete on the golf course. It is also an opportunity for us to display our vehicles and allow our customers to ask questions on the latest upgrades on some of the vehicles,” he said.
