Garage Hive director Alex Lindley, alongside other team members, will be on hand to issue expert advice for independent garages keen to boost business performance.
“We’re really looking forward to the return of Automechanika Birmingham,” said Alex. “It’s an excellent opportunity to meet like-minded garage owners, reflect on shared challenges and discuss garage growth potential. We’ll also be launching a new parts supplier integration at the show, which will bring further timing-benefits for workshops.”
At the first Automechanika held in the UK since 2019, Garage Hive will be encouraging stand visitors to interact with the software during live demonstrations. There will also be plenty of freebies up for grabs including a chance to win a free ticket worth £100 for The Blend 2023, the widely anticipated annual conference and networking event for independent garage owners taking place on Saturday 7th October in Birmingham.
