Duncan Tait: Interview with leading business newspaper, La Tercera

During a recent market visit to Chile, Inchcape’s Group Chief Executive, Duncan Tait, was interviewed by Rodrigo Cárdenas Delgado, Editor-in-Chief of Pulso at leading business newspaper, La Tercera.

Duncan and Rodrigo discussed Inchcape’s growth in the region, where it currently has around a 25% market share, and how the acquisition of Derco solidified its position as a leading distributor. Chile remains a key market for Inchcape, having built a diverse business that represents 14 OEMs and offers an expanded range of brands and models. Duncan also highlighted Inchcape’s aim to achieve strong organic growth, secure new contracts and maintain a healthy M&A pipeline, as well as exploring possible opportunities for the business in adjacent vehicle categories like premium two-wheel motorcycles and light commercial vehicles.

Against the fast-changing backdrop of the automotive industry, Inchcape’s evolved Accelerate+ strategy positions the business to seize new growth opportunities and continue to support local communities across the globe in the mobility transition.
