Pidcock Motorcycles has entered administration, leading to the closure of two of its dealerships. The long-established retailer, which had franchises for BMW, Ducati, and Triumph, went into administration on 21 October after experiencing a prolonged period of challenging trading conditions.
Founded in Beeston and Long Eaton in 1975, Pidcock Motorcycles has served the Nottingham community for almost fifty years. The company’s closure is believed to be linked to rising operational costs and a decline in consumer demand.
Nathan Jones and John Lowe, partners at FRP Advisory, have been appointed as joint administrators. They confirmed the permanent shutdown of the Ducati dealership on Queens Road in Beeston and the Pidcock Triumph site on Tamworth Road in Long Eaton. These closures will result in 18 job losses.
The administrators noted that they have received interest in the BMW site on Fields Farm Road in Long Eaton and are actively considering offers from potential buyers.
All sales at the company’s three sites have been temporarily halted to ensure a structured and carefully managed process for retrieving vehicles already purchased by customers. Customer deposits will be protected throughout the administration process. FRP Advisory has stated its commitment to maintaining open lines of communication and will provide detailed updates regarding how customers can retrieve their vehicles or reclaim their deposits.
