Fred Henderson Ltd Details
Fred Henderson Automobile Engineers commenced trading in a disused workshop underneath the railway bridge in Durham city during January 1973. The business soon expanded to employ four people and continued to expand to eight people by 1980 when the business was moved to Ainsley Street, just a short walk from the city centre. By the early 90s the business was running a fleet of six breakdown trucks and continued to expand rapidly along with the success of National Breakdown, eventually to become Green Flag as it is known today, as well as working for the AA and the RAC. The company also took on one of the first privatised police contracts for vehicle recovery.By 1993 the fleet of vehicles were extended and a 24-hour control centre added. In 1998 a purpose-built control room and up-to-date reception facilities were created. At the same time the company was restructured and became Fred Henderson Limited.In July 2004 David Henderson joined the business after working in motorsport team management to concentrate on the workshop element of the business and we expanded to 25 full and part time employees.Towards the end of 2010 and early 2011 was a very exciting time for us as we acquired the former S.G.Petch twin franchise site on the A690 just past Nevilles Cross, allowing us to retail quality used vehicles as well as taking on a Bosch Car service franchise to support our already strong technical expertise.In 2015 We began offering to the public the service of Paintless Dent Removal. This is the art of manipulating damaged metal panels into their original shape. This is a service little-offered outside of the motor dealers and is a great cost saving opportunity for car owners with dents.Further expansion of the company occurred in February 2016 when we acquired a Bodyshop in Willington a few miles from our main site where we carry out paintwork to a high standard.Now a franchise dealer with MG Motor UK as of December 2016.
