Leon Coupland, Managing Director, Shorade UK, said: “After discussions with the LKQ team we knew that they were the right choice for our business. Shorade UK focuses on delivering high-quality and efficient manufacturer-approved repairs to our customers, and we are confident that the LKQ Coatings team can support us to deliver this now, and in the future. The Directors and our wider teams are looking forward to working closely with the LKQ Coatings team going forwards.”

We look forward to working and growing together to further enhance the team’s vehicle repair and customisation offering from start to finish.”
