Automotive Manufacturing
Modern car production is a constantly changing process in response to consumer demand. Manufacturing facilities in the UK have been expanded, contracted and altered accordingly. Development of existing facilities including paint shops, weld areas, logistics, assembly, vehicle quality inspection areas, panel production and engine plants have all seen significant investment. Business administration has also expanded leading to the need for increased office space.
The recent change in EU legislation on block exemption has led to significant structural change in the car dealership network and a shift towards greater control of brand identity by the manufacturers.
