Introducing Our New Partnership with Fix Auto UK

Fix Auto UK, part of a global network of bodyshops and one of the UK’s leading accident repair groups, has partnered with Charles & Dean Finance to provide Franchise Partners with access to flexible, specialist funding tailored to modern workshop operations.

Supporting more than 150,000 repairs annually across the UK, Fix Auto UK continues to see significant investment across its network, with Franchise Partners committed to upgrading facilities, investing in equipment and technology, and expanding their operations. Through this partnership, Charles & Dean will deliver bespoke commercial finance solutions designed to help bodyshops strengthen cash flow, invest confidently, and plan for long-term growth.

As one of the UK’s leading independent finance brokerages, Charles & Dean works with a broad panel of specialist lenders to secure funding aligned to each business’s operational needs and growth plans. Unlike traditional high-street lenders, this approach delivers faster decisions, greater flexibility, and tailored funding solutions rather than a one-size-fits-all model. Over the past decade, Charles & Dean has supported thousands of businesses and facilitated millions in funding, helping clients unlock investment and scale with confidence.

With nationwide coverage and extensive franchise expertise, Charles & Dean understands the operational realities of running a modern accident repair centre. From equipment and working capital to property acquisition and sustainability investments, Charles & Dean provides finance solutions that enable Fix Auto UK Franchise Partners to modernise, operate efficiently, and build long-term stability.

“For any business, securing the right finance can be complex and time consuming" said Marshall Parr, Head of Marketing at Charles & Dean. "Working with a specialist commercial broker like Charles & Dean ensures Fix Auto UK Franchise Partners can gain access to funding that truly fits their business needs. "With nationwide coverage and direct access to a wide panel of lenders, we’re able to offer fast and flexible finance options that go beyond the traditional high-street banking experience. From application to payout, the team manages the process end-to-end, liaising with lenders and suppliers so branches can focus on running their business.”

Rob Pugh, Group Commercial Director, Fix Auto UK, added: “As an ambitious group, collaborating with the right finance team that understands real world operations is essential. Charles & Dean combine expertise with flexible funding and broad lender access, enabling our franchisees to invest boldly, manage cash flow proactively and build for the future, all while continuing to deliver exceptional repairs.”
