Steer Automotive Group has been named in The Sunday Times 100, which recognises the fastest growing private companies in the UK.

The company has been expanding exponentially ever since it was founded with four sites by Richard Steer in 2018.

In the last 12 months it has made a number of significant acquisitions, including AW Accident Repair Centre and Artis Accident Repair Centres, and has also been enhancing its footprint in the North East with the acquisitions of Tyne Tees Vehicle Repair Group, North East Accident Repair Centres, and Vertu Accident Repair Centre Newcastle.

The business, which now includes more than 60 sites and employs around 1,500 colleagues, also opened a state-of-the-art flagship site in High Wycombe which specialises in repairing premium and luxury vehicle brands.

Richard Steer, chief executive, said: “This prestigious accolade reflects our unwavering commitment to excellence and our remarkable growth trajectory. We extend our deepest gratitude to our insurer partners and vehicle manufacturers for their invaluable support and collaboration, which has played a crucial role in our success. We are immensely proud of our dedicated teams whose hard work, passion, and innovation have propelled us to this significant achievement. This recognition motivates us to continue delivering a Measurably Different customer experience and to set new benchmarks in the industry. Together, we will move towards a future filled with continued growth and success.”
