LKQ Europe has launched a centralised hub for its 16 workshop concept brands across Europe. This move aims to create a more unified network by enabling knowledge sharing and collaboration between teams and workshops.
LKQ Europe’s network currently includes nearly 8,000 partner workshops in 11 countries, with an ambition to reach 10,000 in the coming years. The network caters to a variety of independent garages with different needs and levels of expertise.
“Workshop concepts help independent businesses compete with larger players,” says Andy Hamilton, President of LKQ Europe. “By joining our network, workshops gain access to training, marketing support, and digital solutions.”
LKQ stress the importance of workshop networks in the changing automotive landscape, as fleet ownership rises, workshops need scale and digital platforms to compete for commercial contracts.
Benefits of joining the LKQ network include:
- Recognised brand affiliation
- Access to best practices and expertise
- Marketing support
- Digital solutions
- Technical training
- Business development opportunities
The new hub will leverage LKQ’s experience across Europe while maintaining local customisation for each brand.
