Fix Auto Hereford is open for business – completing the ambition of owner Kevin Dunlop who joined the network just 20 months ago with Fix Auto Tewkesbury.
He got the keys to a dilapidated former warehouse six months ago and has now transformed the site into a 5,500 sqft state-of-the-art repair facility with capacity for 50 vehicles a month.
It has already sailed through the pre-audit process for his BS 10125 certification and are now preparing for their final audit scheduled for early next month.
Kevin said, “I am so delighted to be here in Hereford standing in my new repair centre. It has taken me a little longer than expected simply because as we pulled back layers of the old building we uncovered various unforeseen issues that slowed our progress down. That said, I really couldn’t be happier with the way things have turned out.”
Ian Pugh, Managing Director for Fix Auto UK, added, “What Kevin and his team have achieved is nothing short of inspirational. He boldly declared when he joined us of his intentions to rapidly expand his business and, 18 months on he’s the proud owner of his second site that he literally has developed with his bare hands. It really is a great addition to the network, geographically it couldn’t be in a better position as we continually strive to provide a comprehensive service for our insurer partners.”
