A Five-Year Partnership for Sustainable Growth
LKQ and Fix Auto UK have signed a five-year partnership that supports long-term success and sustainability for the 133 Fix Auto UK Franchise Partners.
Following a successful three-year relationship, Fix Auto UK and LKQ have entered a new agreement running from September 1 until May 2030, reinforcing their shared commitment to sustainable growth and excellence.
As part of this strategic partnership, LKQ becomes the preferred sole supplier, offering Fix Auto UK’s 130+ Franchise Partners access to world-class solutions including workshop equipment, paint supply, consumables and the UK’s largest selection of BS10125 compliant car body parts.
This collaboration not only supports business optimisation but also enables significant investment in people, with Franchise Partners benefiting from industry-leading training through the LKQ Academy further strengthening Fix Auto UK’s mission to build resilient, future-ready businesses powered by premium products and services.
LKQ is at the forefront of new innovation and will be providing Franchise Partners with unique solutions that support sustainable businesses for the future. When faced with cost pressures, skills shortages, shifting customer expectations and the drive toward greater sustainability, LKQ is committed to supporting the Fix Auto UK group of successful bodyshops, working together to achieve long-term success.
Fix Auto UK is part of the global Franchise that operates more than 875 bodyshops across 10 countries. The Fix Auto brand is synonymous with high quality repairs and excellent customer service, ensuring drivers are back on the road safely. Thousands of customers rate Fix Auto UK’s car body repair services as ‘Excellent’ on Trustpilot and it is a trusted partner with the UK’s major insurance and fleet companies.
As the sector acknowledges its environmental impact, the partnership between Fix Auto UK and LKQ embraces the commitment required to change the environmental path of the industry. By integrating LKQ’s Sustainability Training, the Fix Auto UK Franchise Partners will be supported on their journey to reducing their environmental impact through the expertise provided by LKQ.
Deboragh Greenwood, Head of Account Management at LKQ, said:
“Fix Auto UK is one of the country’s leading brand of repairers trusted by motorists and insurance companies for its dedication to quality and customer satisfaction, which are values it shares with LKQ. This partnership builds on a long-standing relationship, with both businesses having evolved side-by-side to meet the changing needs of the industry.
“We’re now taking that one step further by putting our dedicated support behind repairers across the network, helping cater to their unique needs as they navigate the challenges of today’s market.
“LKQ doesn’t provide a one-size-fits-all approach, and by leveraging our collective expertise and resources we can ensure every bodyshop under the Fix Auto UK banner receives the right solutions to drive sustainable and profitable growth – be that parts, training, investment or day-to-day account management.”
Mark Hutchins, Operations Director at Fix Auto UK, added:
“This partnership is a great opportunity to reinforce our commitment to providing our Franchise Partners with a one-stop solution for expert and reliable body repair services.
“LKQ, like us, is a company that takes a broad view of the industry and recognises the importance of flexibility in meeting customer needs. What attracted us to this partnership is the comprehensive bodyshop offering that sets LKQ apart. From aftersales support and training to insights and technical expertise, their full-service approach will bring meaningful value to our network and their customers supporting our ongoing growth and commitment to continuous improvement.”
