Fix Auto UK Celebrate Bodyshop Awards

The 2025 Bodyshop Magazine Awards was once again yet another night of celebration for Fix Auto UK.

The Group continued its impressive winning streak in the prestigious 30 Under 30: Rising Stars awards, with Andy Greaney, Bodyshop Manager at Fix Auto Weston-super-Mare, and Kia Jalfon, Customer Service Manager at Fix Auto Redhill, both earning well-deserved accolades for their exceptional contributions to the industry.

Now in its ninth year, the 30 Under 30: Rising Stars programme honours outstanding individuals working across every aspect of the vehicle repair sector. Last night’s glittering ceremony held at The Belfry near Birmingham, marked yet another occasion where Fix Auto UK celebrated multiple recipients, maintaining the organisation’s record of success since the awards’ inception.

The celebrations continued as Billy Adams of Fix Auto Redhill was singled out with a ‘Highly Commended’ recognition in the Paint Technician of the Year category, missing the overall top spot by just half a point.

Shortly after the announcement, Fix Auto Redhill’s co-owner Andy Melnick, commented: “What an incredible evening! We are hugely proud of both Kia and Billy — tonight truly marks a fantastic moment for our business. Billy is an outstanding painter whose talent and dedication shine through in everything he does, and Kia is an amazing customer service representative who consistently goes above and beyond for our clients. This Highly Commended award is well-deserved recognition of Billy’s amazing skill, hard work, and passion for his craft. It’s a real credit to him — and to both of them for representing our business so brilliantly.”

Mark Hutchins, Operations Director for Fix Auto UK, commented: “What a fantastic evening for our industry and an incredible achievement for The Group. Our continued success at these awards reflects the hard work, passion and teamwork that defines Fix Auto UK and each and every Franchise Partner. We’re thrilled to keep our winning momentum going.”
