In 2005 the PDP Buying Group was formed by several likeminded Motor Factors who realised that by being part of a large National Buying Group they were losing the ability to shape their own future for the specific needs of their businesses.
These Motor Factors concluded that by negotiating directly with suppliers, they would achieve advantageous commercial terms and a closer working relationship with those suppliers.
Today the PDP works with exactly the same principals, working closely with our supply partners to achieve market-leading commercial terms. The membership works closely together helping each other in the increasingly competitive market.
