PARENT Company,
GROUPAUTO are
thrilled to announce
that their garage
network, ‘AutoCare’
has reached 600 garages on
their network – making them
the largest independent garage
programme in the UK.
Out of the 600 garages 103
have joined the network in
2017 alone. The 600th garage
to sign up to the Auto-
Care network was Shirley
Garage in Surrey, who joined
on the 21st August 2017.
Shirley Garage is aligned
to GROUPAUTO distributor
Discount Car Spares in
Leatherhead. To celebrate,
the AutoCare team went to
visit the garage on Wednesday
14th September.
The garage was presented
by Garage Network Manager,
Maria McCullough and
their Business Development
Manager, Stacey Eade, with
some Love2shop vouchers
and branded workwear for
the technicians at Shirley
Garage. Matt Rivett, Managing
Director of Shirley garage
was pleased with the celebration
as it was unexpected.
He said: “I’m was very impressed
with the AutoCare
programme presentation by
Business Development Manager,
Stacey Eade. I particularly
liked the training and
technical support that the
AutoCare network offers the
garages. I am really looking
forward to being a part of
the AutoCare programme for
the long-term, and being the
600th garage on the network
is a bonus.”
Matt said he has been at
the garage now for just over
three years so the training
element is very important to
him and his staff. The business
was previously owned
by his father in law and he
has now taken over the reins.
They have been a customer
of DCS Motor Factor for a
while now and always receive
a good efficient service from
them.
