Setting our ‘sites’ on growth in 2022

Thursday, 16 Dec 2021

Having opened seven service centres in 2021, we are setting our ‘sites’ on further expansion in 2022. It’s been a busy 50th year, which has seen additional demand after being awarded new contracts with several large insurers.

Additional service centres are based in Horsham, Nottingham, Sandhurst and Brierley Hill, while those in Exeter, Ashford (Heathrow) and Nuneaton were relocations.

Sean Draycott, Operations Director for Auto Windscreens, commented: “It’s been another tough year for many businesses, but we’ve been fortunate in continuing to grow. We’re seeing a real uplift in demand and these new and additional sites are helping us improve our customer journey and expand our ADAS calibration capacity.

“Our recruitment drive for technicians will continue into 2022. We’ll also be looking to employ 25 apprentices by February and look to open at least another six service centres across the UK by the end of the year.”
