We are delighted to advise that after more than 15 months of negotiations we have officially signed off the 28 acre Wittering long term agreement to operate our PurpleRock HQ automotive defleet, logisitics and secure storage facility ideally located off the A1 north of Peterborough.
Michael Tomalin CEO stated ‘Firstly I would like to thank the team from top to bottom at PurpleRock, their work ethic and commitment to the cause has been immense in far from ideal working conditions. With the agreement signed we have now been developing the ground and facilities, introducing electricity and new modular offices and conference centre which will all be live by September 2024. This is a game changing position for the business as we expand the capacity to over 5000 vehicles securely stored and in-life managed prior to vehicle preparation to include NAMA/BVRLA inspection, selection of valet standards, vehicle repair both cosmetic and mechanical, AI market leading 360 video and digital imagery by VUMO and finally movement by PurpleRock Logistics by full load transporter or single move retail handover. The financial outlay has been approved by the board to further expand our UK footprint in the coming months with key territories being introduced in the NW, Scotland and Northern Ireland to compliment our headquarters. This is exciting times for the business as we continue our growth aspirations to operate in unison with our remarketing business City Auction Group’.
