<strong>Garage</strong> Hive to support<br />
REPXPERT Conference<br />
Community-driven garage<br />
management software, <strong>Garage</strong> Hive<br />
is set to support Schaeffler’s new<br />
national REPXPERT Conference for<br />
UK garages at the manufacturing<br />
training centre (MTC) Coventry on<br />
Wednesday 22nd May, 2024.<br />
Specially invited to advise attendees on how to boost<br />
business performance, the award-winning <strong>Garage</strong><br />
Management System will have a strong presence in the<br />
‘Technical Zone’. <strong>Garage</strong> Hive directors Alex Lindley and Dawn<br />
Metcalfe will be on-hand to issue expert advice.<br />
Elsewhere at the REPXPERT Conference, a keynote panel<br />
discussion will feature two <strong>Garage</strong> Hive workshops: Tim Benson of<br />
Oldfields <strong>Garage</strong> and Dean Lomas of DC Lomas Ltd. Also from the<br />
<strong>Garage</strong> Hive community, Matt Cleevely of Cleevely Group is billed<br />
to give a presentation on the vehicle electrification opportunity<br />
for independent garages.<br />
“Our presence at the REPXPERT Conference underscores<br />
<strong>Garage</strong> Hive’s growing influence,” said Alex. “We’re delighted to<br />
be a part of it. We share Schaeffler’s unwavering dedication to<br />
equipping independent garages with the tools and knowledge<br />
needed to excel in an ever-evolving automotive landscape.”<br />
Running from 9am to 5pm, <strong>The</strong> REPXPERT Conference promises<br />
an insightful schedule of industry talks with automotive journalist,<br />
TV presenter and content creator, Abigayle André playing host<br />
for the day. It kick-starts with two keynote speakers and a panel<br />
discussion in the morning, with a choice of three repeated<br />
breakout lectures in the afternoon following a buffet lunch.<br />
Schaeffler will cap attendance at just 200 delegates, ensuring<br />
ample opportunity to access the content that most appeals. With<br />
free tickets now available to book on a first-come, first-served<br />
basis, garages are advised to book early to avoid disappointment.<br />
<strong>The</strong> conference builds upon the growing success of Schaeffler’s<br />
regional REPXPERT Academy Live events, which regularly attract<br />
up to 100 workshop professionals.<br />
