Fix Auto UK franchisees Stephen and Sam Smith will expand operations with their fourth site.
Fix Auto South Leeds, a new 10,000 sqft repair centre, is expected to be operational by the middle of next month, joining the father and son’s existing sites Fix Auto Leeds North, Fix Auto Keighley and Fix Auto Bradford South.
Sam said, “Our new site will echo our Leeds North operation with an open plan bodyshop, plenty of car parking and easy access which will enable us to operate a far greater work-flow processes. It is also close to the M1 with easy and fluid access in and out of the site.
“It is yet another major investment for the business but one we feel is necessary to maintain the high level of service to our customers. When fully operational I believe our productivity will improve by more than 100% over our former site.”
Ian Pugh, Managing Director for Fix Auto UK, addd: “This is yet another exciting development for Stephen and Sam and for the network. They became the first franchise partners to design and build a bespoke site and have really benefitted from its seamless productivity. They’re striving to build a portfolio of high-performing bodyshops which has to be congratulated.”
