Mercedes-Benz South West Complete LCV Expansion in Plymouth
27 Oct 2021
We are delighted to announce Mercedes-Benz South West have successfully expanded its workshop facility adjacent to the existing Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) Centre located in Estover, Plymouth. We have successfully acquired a space previously used by DPD to fulfill the expansion. Following numerous lockdowns over the past 2 years, the need for vans has grown due to the popularity of online retail and the requirement for more courier and delivery services across the region.
Following this demand, we has seen visit numbers to the after sales division increase by 18% compared to last year and 22% in 2019. Mercedes-Benz South West can now accommodate that growing demand from those looking to keep their van safe and maintained following the boost in van sales. Furthermore, Mercedes-Benz South West will also utilise this new space by undertaking more Passenger Car servicing, adding more convenience for customers in the local area. Passenger Car servicing will now take place at both the Plymouth Showroom site, in Derriford, as well as the new facility in Estover, Plymouth.
Since the expansion was completed, Mercedes-Benz South West have recruited many professionals from the local area. The expansion continues to bring new job opportunities with roles nearly always available due to consistent growth. Vacancies currently being hired for include LCV Technicians (x2) and a Passenger Car Vehicle Technician.
Lee Nash, After Sales Director at Mercedes-Benz South West comments:
“We are immensely proud of what we have achieved here at our LCV Centre in Plymouth. Our team has worked extremely hard over the last 2 years to firstly support our customers since the pandemic began, and secondly to complete an expansion. This expansion enables us to offer both our Light Commercial Van customers and our Passenger Car customers more support with their servicing and maintenance needs. We’re delighted that as a result we are also offering more employment opportunity to the local area.”
