Mylchreests closing part of its business after over six decades of trading

A family-run company on the Island has announced it is closing a huge part of its business after trading for more than six decades.

Mylchreests will stop its sales, servicing and parts operation on April 17 after 64 years in the business.

However the company says it will continue its car rental service that operates out Ronaldsway Airport.

Chairman David Mylchreest says that the decision was made with extreme reluctance and tinged with great sadness given the loyalty of staff and customers on the Island over generations.
