The Hammond Group are motor dealers based in North Suffolk. Founded in 1962 by Roy and Daisy Hammond, the pair took a tremendous leap of faith by launching their own motor repair company when they started trading as A W & D Hammond in the small village of Wenhaston, near Halesworth. Through hard work, dedication and by delivering what customers wanted, their initial £1500 investment evolved into the Company that is now the Hammond Group.Fifty six years ago, Roy Hammond worked in Halesworth as a motor mechanic, but decided to turn his passion for motor vehicles and strong desire to provide a valued service for his local community into a business. Starting in a humble wooden shed as his workshop, which could only hold one and a half cars, Roy Hammond quickly built a reputation for himself and was way ahead of his time, offering courtesy cars, service washes and a 24 hour breakdown and recovery service, way before any of these ideas had ever been thought of.Ambition to be the best and a strong desire to constantly provide excellent customer service has been the beating heart of Hammonds from the very first day and the growth and success is a testament to Roy's vision.The Hammond Motor Group now represents 5 different manufacturers from 8 premises and is a one-stop-shop for all needs, including a large Accident Repair Centre for both cars and commercial vehicles, an extensive recovery and breakdown department with 25 vehicles in the fleet, a mobile semi-trailer repair business, a large rental vehicle fleet, a tyre retail and wholesale business, a forecourt, an HGV repair department and a large trade parts business. Currently have 272 staff on the payroll.Throughout the course of the last 5 decades, leadership of Hammonds has passed through to the 2nd and 3rd generations who continue to build upon the previous success and provide a wide range of innovative and award winning services.
