Fix Auto UK has continued its Midlands expansion with the appointment of Bowles Vehicle Repair, which will now operate at Fix Auto Leicester.
The appointment comes after Managing Director Kevin Shaw and Bodyshop Manager Daniel Line have overseen a full programme of investment which has seen three near derelict farm buildings replaced with two interconnecting units totalling more than 11,000 sqft. One has been laid out specifically with 13 workbays for all panel and strip and fit work and the second is a dedicated paint shop complete with three booths, one for LCVs.
Kevin said, “Since rebranding the business four years ago, we have been working tirelessly towards this moment where we can now say we’re part of an organisation, something far bigger and far more established than we could ever be as a stand-alone business.
“We recognised long ago that if we were to fulfil our own aspirations, we needed to be part of a larger organisation, one that provides experience and business support we crave which is why we turned to Fix Auto UK.”
Ian Pugh, Managing Director of Fix Auto UK, said: “We are in an enviable position where we are now attracting businesses to the network that are more than willing to match any ambitions they have with significant investment from the outset.
“Kevin and the shareholders behind Fix Auto Leicester approached us with their plans and were open and honest about the mind of support and guidance they believed they needed to enable their new site to meet its full potential. I am delighted to say this is yet another exciting new franchise partner on board who I know will only add further strength to our incredible network.”
