Eden Tyres & Servicing, based in Tungsten Park, Oakham, recently passed an extensive assessment based on 80 criteria points – covering Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) standards, customer experience, and operational excellence.
In mid-May, Eden Tyres & Servicing opened its “flagship” Castrol service garage in West Bridgford. Located on Wilford Industrial Estate, this spacious centre is described as a “modern garage offer[ing] a wide range of services including tyres, MOT, car servicing and repairs” and “a perfect alternative to expensive main dealerships…”.
Eden Tyres & Servicing is partnering with Breast Cancer Now to support life-changing research and support services for those affected by breast cancer. As part of the partnership, Eden Tyres will donate £2 to Breast Cancer Now for every tyre sold from the Radar Tyre range throughout 2025, with a minimum expected donation of £30,000. These funds will contribute directly to Breast Cancer Now’s efforts to advance research and provide essential support to individuals affected by breast cancer across the UK.
Eden Tyres & Servicing kitted out its first-ever mobile tyre fitting van. Now officially on the road, the new van is based at the company’s Ashby garage and will bring “premium tyre fitting services” to Leicestershire, Derbyshire, and Burton-on-Trent.
Eden Tyres & Servicing has completed the construction of its 21st retail depot in Gainsborough ahead of schedule, which means the new branch opened on 18 February. Located next to Morrisons supermarket on Heapham Road South, company representatives are clearly expecting decent footfall from such a prime retail location.
Eden Tyres & Servicing’s Oakham branch is set to open during August. Located on Tungsten Park’s Panniers Way, this will be company’s 20th retail site and its first venture into Rutland.
Eden Tyres & Servicing has started work on its 20th tyre centre. According to the company, the latest addition is “on target to be opening in a few months’ time”. Eden representatives haven’t revealed where branch number 20 will be located, but they have confirmed that it will be one of at least two branches to open in 2022.
Tyre specialists may not have been named as outright winners this year, but there was at least one tyre retailer named in most of the Motor Ombudsman’s regional Garage Star awards categories. Nearly 1,100 customers submitted a nomination for an individual team member or business accredited to one or more of The Motor Ombudsman’s four Motor Industry Codes of Practice, who they felt had gone above and beyond to assist them during the last 12 months.
In April we reported that Eden Tyres & Servicing was planning to open its 19th retail branch in 2021. Roughly five months later, the company which is 40 this year has achieved that target with the opening of a new location in Grantham.
As can be seen in the top 10 table published yesterday, Halfords Autocentres remains in second place nationally in our 2021 ranking of the UK’s largest retail operations by branch count. Continuing our three-article series on this subject, today’s instalment focuses on places 11 to 20 and finds that the medium to large sized positions are increasingly being taken by autocentre style businesses that make as much money from parts and repairs as they do from tyres (and more than traditional fast fits).
Growing tyre retail chain Eden Tyres & Servicing currently has 18 branches in its network of tyre retail businesses. However, at the end of March company representatives revealed that Eden Tyres will open its 19th branch later in 2021.
Eden Tyres & Servicing (ETS) recently named the company’s shortlist for their 2017 Technician Of The Year awards, sponsored by Firestone.
Fast fitters from ETS’s 14 Midlands sales depots were nominated for the prestigious award and the hopeful contestants were whittled down to a shortlist of 10. Finally, one overall winner was crowned the official Technician Of The Year.
