Ten weeks to the day that Fix Auto Hereford opened its doors for business and the repair centre once again had cause to celebrate with success following its Stage Two BSI audit.
Owner Kevin Dunlop received the news he’s been waiting for that his business had passed its BSI 10125 audit. Today’s announcement follows his inspection held last Thursday where the centre received a faultless report with no minors or advisories.
The achievement completes the programme of investment that commenced in March earlier this year, exactly one year after Kevin joined Fix Auto UK by bringing Fix Auto Tewkesbury into the Group. Since then, he has transformed what was a dilapidated former warehouse into the 5,500 sq ft state-of-the-art repair facility brimming with the latest technology.
Commenting on the achievement, Kevin said: “I am so delighted with the news, while we have been repairing vehicles for our retail customers for the last 10 weeks, success with our BS 10125 inspection completes the journey and effectively truly kick starts our position to repair all vehicles.”
Mark Hutchins, Operations Director for Fix Auto UK, said: “We have yet another highly motivated Franchise Partner who has worked tirelessly to fulfil an ambition to become a multi-site operator. Gaining his BSI certification is an integral piece of the puzzle we require of all our franchisees. It really is yet another good day for the network as we continue to grow from strength-to-strength.”
