Council fleet and workshop partner Specialist Fleet Services Ltd (SFS) continues to expand its nationwide network of workshops with the opening of a new depot in Exeter.
The new facility, which will support SFS’ customers in the South West, is creating new jobs in the area and recruitment for HGV Technicians is underway.
The new 3000 sq. ft workshop comprises four vehicle bays and parts storage. SFS has invested £100k in workshop equipment at the site, which will include vehicle lifts for heavy and lightweight commercial vehicles.
Two bays are designated for working primarily on HGVs and the other for LCVs. Both will be used to support SFS customers’ fleets in the South West, including Mid Devon District Council, Somerset Council and Exeter City Council. The facility will also support hire vehicles from SFS’ vehicle rental division CTS Hire.
Bob Sweetland, Managing Director, SFS: ‘The new Exeter depot is part of a wider strategy to set up and run our own workshops manned by our own fully trained technicians. This means we can guarantee a consistently high standard of service delivery to maintain our customers’ fleets and our own rental fleet.’
