Alberton, South Africa – 7 November 2025 — A year of progress, partnership, and bold ambition has marked the journey of GAC Alberton as Raceview Motors proudly celebrates its first anniversary with the GAC brand. Steered by Dealer Principal Mrs. Cecilia Ries, the dealership continues to raise the bar in customer experience, community engagement, and forward-thinking mobility — and now enters an exciting new chapter with the addition of JMC Motors to the Salvador Caetano family.
A Year of Growth Rooted in Heritage
Situated at No. 2 Jubilee Street, Raceview, GAC Alberton has quickly become a cornerstone in Alberton’s automotive landscape. Backed by the strength and reach of the Salvador Caetano Group, the dealership blends decades of family-owned heritage with modern brand representation, creating a space where innovation and service excellence thrive.
Over the past year, Raceview Motors has embraced GAC Motor’s rapid rise in South Africa, introducing the brand’s advanced technology, premium design, and reputation for reliability to a growing local customer base. Now, with the addition of JMC Motors — a global manufacturer known for its robust commercial and passenger vehicles — the dealership expands its offering and deepens its commitment to serving the evolving mobility needs of South Africans.
Leadership That Drives Change
“Our journey with GAC has been nothing short of incredible,” says Mrs. Ries. “One year later, we’re not only celebrating the success of a premium brand that continues to impress South African motorists, but we’re also expanding our horizons with JMC Motors — marking the beginning of another exciting chapter for our dealership and our customers.”
Under her guidance, Raceview Motors has strengthened its reputation as a trusted, community-focused dealership, celebrating 26 years as a family-run business in 2025. This milestone underscores a legacy built on integrity, consistency, and a customer-first mindset — values that seamlessly align with the Salvador Caetano mission.
A Facility Designed for Excellence
Conveniently positioned in the Alberton CBD and easily accessible from all major routes, the GAC and JMC Alberton dealership offers a complete automotive solution. The service centre features six fully equipped workshop bays, staffed by highly trained technicians dedicated to upholding the rigorous quality standards associated with both GAC Motor and Salvador Caetano.
With an impressive average of 140 vehicle deliveries per month, the dealership’s performance reflects its strong community standing and continued growth within South Africa’s competitive automotive sector.
Celebrating a Year of Momentum
In October 2025, GAC Alberton hosted the Willem Botha MasterClass Event, an energetic celebration that drew more than 300 guests and highlighted the dealership’s achievements during its first year with the GAC brand. The event reinforced customer enthusiasm and the dealership’s commitment to offering elevated automotive experiences.
“We’re incredibly proud of what GAC Alberton has achieved in just one year,” says Lionel Pillay, Head of Sales at Salvador Caetano. “It represents the essence of our mission — empowering our dealer network to deliver global quality with local heart. As we continue to expand, partnerships like this will drive our success and help us redefine mobility across South Africa.”
A Vision for a Smarter Mobility Future
With Salvador Caetano’s long-standing dedication to sustainable growth and strategic dealer partnerships, GAC Alberton’s success represents more than just a milestone — it reflects a movement. One that embraces innovation, invests in people, and strengthens communities through world-class mobility solutions.
As GAC Alberton steps into its second year and welcomes JMC Motors to its showroom floors, Raceview Motors continues to stand as a symbol of progress for the Caetano network, proving that when passion and purpose align, meaningful change is not only possible — it becomes inevitable.
