Cambridgeshire based Manchetts Group Holdings Ltd, a leading vehicle service, repair, and roadside recovery enterprise, has announced its latest milestone in expansion with the acquisition of new HGV workshops, previously MAN Sleaford.

The company says the “strategic move further solidifies Manchetts’ position as a top player in the industry”.

A company spokesperson said: “As a respected family-run business and a Cambridgeshire top 100 company, Manchetts Group has experienced remarkable growth since its inception.

“Starting as a single site operation, the company has expanded its presence across Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, and Lincolnshire.

“The acquisition of the new HGV workshops marks their second venture into Lincolnshire and is a significant step towards expanding along the thriving A1 corridor.

“This comes on the heels of our successful acquisition of a Peterborough site in 2020.”

Manchetts Group says that while it has “already set high standards for customer satisfaction” with its award-winning MAN branded workshops in Peterborough, Spalding, and Newmarket, the commitment to ‘everything automotive’ extends to servicing all types of HGV and LCV brands.

“With a proactive and problem-solving approach, backed by strong technical expertise and a positive attitude, Manchetts Group always strives to minimize customer downtime,” said the spokesperson.

“With a rich history dating back to 1961 in Burwell, Manchetts Group prides itself on delivering a personalized level of service and building strong customer relationships.

“The iconic yellow and green vehicle recovery trucks have become a familiar sight on the A14 and A1, and now, with the addition of the new workshop in Sleaford, HGV owners and drivers in the area will benefit from enhanced support.”

Group director Robert Manchett, along with Peterborough lead Peter Bradshaw and Newmarket lead Pete Williams, welcomed Sleaford lead Aaron Woods and his team on February 1st.

Manchettes says the integration of the new workshop is expected to further strengthen their capabilities “and provide an even better experience for our valued customers”.

Manchetts Group has invited existing and new customers, as well as visitors, to explore their facilities.
