This move marks a significant milestone for the company as it seeks to broaden its horizons and cater to a new market of customers in the region.
The expansion plans were set into motion when Fix Auto Chelmsford, a proud member of the prestigious Fix Auto UK chain, submitted a comprehensive planning application to the esteemed Colchester Council on December 6. The proposal outlines the establishment of a cutting-edge auto repair workshop in the heart of Colchester, signaling a fresh chapter in the firm’s growth trajectory.
