First Stop, the fast-fit network, has promoted Shaun Sweeney and Nick Salt to national franchise manager UK & Ireland and UK territory manager respectively.
Meanwhile, Damian Cleaver has been appointed as business development manager for Wales and the South West, having previously worked as Area Manager at ETB Autocentres.
First Stop has already attracted 11 new franchise partners during the first two months of the year through its refreshed approach, which is geared around the individual needs of each dealer.
Sweeney said that while the economic landscape was presenting challenges across the automotive industry, there were reasons to be excited, with a number of recent successes to report.
He said: “Our new proposition has really resonated with independent garages and it has been a big success.
“We’re welcoming a number of new dealers to the network, with a tailored package of support.”
