Our History
A little more background…
The business started in 1976, when Fred Smith, followed on from his vehicle repair apprenticeship and experience in London and Kent and took his initiative to start his own business in a small garage in Northfleet.
Fred’s business gradually grew and he was able to afford to rent a workshop in Vale Road, Northfleet, where Peter Hartup joined the team starting as an apprentice at the age of 16 in 1978.
In 1994 Fred & Peter, and a loyal team of employees moved the business to its present location at Imperial Business Park, Gravesend. During the last 20 years, Fred’s daughter Charlotte and son Ben have joined the business and now run the bodyshop and day to day responsibilities of the business.
