Andrew Page, the motor factor group, has opened its 60th outlet as it continues its drive for expansion.

Its latest opening is in Milton Keynes, and is the company's most southern site.

It has opened 10 new outlets this year alone and is steadily expanding from its traditional north of England marketplace.

Each depot has a fleet of at least six vans to serve local motor repairers six days a week.

Mark Roberts, managing director, said: "2011 has been an astounding year for us. In such a challenging climate, our business is doing exceptionally well. Our plans to extend our offerings from North to South are fast being achieved, and our ten new branches are being very well received by both existing and new customers."
