Glasgow-based turbo remanufacturing specialist, The Turbo Guy, has expanded its trade-only business south of the border, following the acquisition of Turbocharger Service (UK) Limited (TCS) in Huddersfield.
Having achieved continuous year-on-year growth since launching in 2010, The Turbo Guy will now be able to offer trade customers, including motor factors and parts distributors across the North of England, with same day delivery of its premium quality remanufactured turbos for cars and light commercial vehicles.
In the near term, TCS will continue to operate under its own name and all seven staff are being retained. This includes TCS founder Ian Goodall, who will work alongside Allan Mitchell, managing director of The Turbo Guy, to develop the company’s customer base in the UK.
As well as the ease of access to its evolving range of high quality turbochargers, repairers will benefit from the launch of a technical support telephone service, which The Turbo Guy will be introducing in the next few months.
Commenting on the acquisition, Allan Mitchell, founder and managing director of The Turbo Guy, said:
“Our strategic acquisition of TCS represents a major milestone for The Turbo Guy, which will accelerate our growth ambitions and help take the business to the next level, in terms of product availability, technical expertise and customer service. We are looking forward to working closely with Ian Goodall and his experienced team, who we’ve known for many years and anticipate a significant uplift in business, as a result of our expanded market presence.”
