Kingsway Tyres has invested almost £450,000 in a new autocentre in Retford, with the creation of two new jobs.

The workshop at Trinity Park Industrial Estate replaces Kingsway’s previous depot in Victoria Drive.

It offers MOT testing, four-wheel geometry alignment and air-con services as well as tyre repair and replacement.

Centre manager Dave Spooner said: “This is an exciting new chapter for Kingsway and the Retford team. To be able to boast these facilities at a brand new centre is such a boost for us. We hope that motorists will benefit from an even better service and we look forward to welcoming them onto the forecourt.

“After so many happy memories in Victoria Road, we decided to make the leap to the new premises. We had outgrown the old site and wanted a facility with better access for motorists, with a number of additional services. We now boast state-of-the-art tools and equipment and are looking forward to an exciting future.”

Kingsway Tyres’ director and general manager Martin O’Brien added: “We have already welcomed so many new and old customers in our first week, so it has been a really encouraging start to life at Trinity Park Industrial Estate.

 “We are extremely pleased to be investing in Retford once again and look forward to another 40 years of serving both commercial businesses and private motorists.”

Kingsway trades from 16 locations in the East of England.
