Fix Auto Australia Expands Into QLD

Fix Auto said it has appointed Claydon Panel Works as its first strategic partner in Queensland. Having operated in Mackay for over 25 years, Fix Auto said that the panel shop has established a strong reputation for delivering the highest levels of quality and service to its insurer and private customers alike.

“Joining Fix Auto was a critical part of our desire to implement change in our business to ensure we can continue to thrive in a rapidly changing industry,” said Marty Wheeler, Director at Claydon Panel Works. “We wanted to join a group of like-minded business owners to promote high quality repairs and drive standards in excellence such as I-CAR training. Added value from maximising the group buying potentials on offer with leading global suppliers provides even greater value to the model.

“I was extremely excited about the rebranding of the business and a whole new visual presence of our facility. It is going to look great and provide an outstanding environment for our staff and customers alike.”

“Claydon Panel Works, who will now trade as Fix Auto Mackay, are the perfect fit for our business,” said Scott Holden, Fix Auto Head of Sales for QLD & NSW. “They have the passion and enthusiasm to deliver at the highest level and they embrace the changes needed to thrive in a consolidating industry that is under increasing pressure from all sides. Andrew, Marty and the whole team in Mackay represent the very best of our industry and we are delighted to have them as our latest partner.”
