FMG boosts repair capacity with raft of new deals

By / 11 months ago / Latest News / No Comments

FMG has increased its repair network with more than 100 new partnerships to boost its capacity long-term.

The new arrivals follow a year-long project to increase capability

The new repairers join the existing UK-wide network, all of whom are fully equipped with the latest technology, including the ability to repair structural composite materials, hybrids and EVs.

The new arrivals follow a year-long project to increase capability as the sector continues to face significant pressure; demand for repairs now outstrips capacity in many parts of the country.

FMG has also recruited additional network managers across the UK to support both new and existing repairers in guaranteeing high standards of repair quality for all vehicle technologies and fuel types.

The company provides end-to-end incident management solutions and manages repairs using a ‘blended’ repairer network that contains 60 repair bodyshops owned by its sister company FMG Repair Services and more than 250 managed independent repairers.

John Keeton, operations director, said: “As the repair market diversifies, these additions to our repairer network are part of our strategic plan to ensure FMG provides a robust, sustainable and scalable best-in-class repairer network for the future, whilst meeting our own demands following recent growth.

“We are proud to work in partnership with some of the UK’s best repairers and we rely upon them to expertly provide the most tangible aspect of our service to our customers.”
