Revive! Auto Innovations is delighted to announce that Revive! East Anglia has won the Trailblazer category in the 2024 bfa\/HSBC Franchisee of the Year awards.<\/p>\n

The Trailblazer award recognises the achievements of top performing franchisees who are not afraid of setting their goals high, standing out from the crowd and leading the way for other franchisees to follow.<\/p>\n

Revive! East Anglia has been the first to set and then smash almost every Revive! Auto Innovations UK company record, reaching \u00a31m turnover in 2019. Last year owners\u00a0Nathan Holmes, Andy Blackhurst and Andam Holmes\u00a0grew the business by a staggering half a million, leaping from \u00a31.2m to \u00a31.7m and they are on track to be the first Revive! franchisee to break the \u00a32m barrier later this year.<\/p>\n

Said Cathryn Hayes, Revive! franchise director:\u00a0 \u201cYear on year, month on month this team strive to be the best of the best, driven by ambition and dogged determination to take their business to the max.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt every level Revive! continues to win awards \u2013 whether it is by us as the franchisor or by franchisees individually. Why? Because we have shared vision and values, know where we want to go and prepared to put everything into it to achieve ongoing success. Revive! East Anglia won Franchisee of the Year in the 2016 bfa\/HSBC awards but never rested on their laurels. As the title of the award suggests, they are true trailblazers, setting the benchmark and leading the way for others in the network.\u201d<\/p>\n

The award ceremony and gala dinner was held at the Telford International Centre on 6 November where the team from East Anglia were delighted to accept the accolade. Commented director Nathan Holmes: \u201c Our people are our greatest asset so this award is for everyone at Revive! East Anglia in recognition of their commitment and hard work.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reflecting on the awards, HSBC UK Head of Franchise Gillian Morris said:\u00a0\u201cThe British Franchise Awards have consistently demonstrated the best of the UK franchising industry, and the breadth of applications from franchisees and franchisors this year, highlights the value placed in a bfa HSBC UK British Franchise Award; the pinnacle of achievement in the UK franchise industry.\u00a0 Judging the finalists was challenging but rewarding and I was delighted that on awards night, we were able to showcase the talent and success of the UK industry.\u00a0\u00a0 Huge congratulations to all the winners, and to the shortlisted finalists.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pip Wilkins, CEO of the bfa, who celebrated her 25th<\/sup>\u00a0anniversary with the association this year said: \u201cAnother year of inspiring entries demonstrating well thought out strategies, forward thinking innovation, carefully considered insight and ultimately, growth for franchise brands. In this our survey year, which revealed a 53% growth in the Personal Services sector, it is perhaps unsurprising to see so many of them here as winners tonight.\u00a0 My enormous congratulations to all the finalists and of course, the winners. We hope this award will give you the recognition you deserve as the best in British Franchising.\u201d<\/p>\n

This accolade is the latest in a series of award wins for the UK\u2019s leading SMART repair company. Revive! was named bfa\/HSBC franchise of the year in the 2023 Culture and Leadership category and achieved a top position in the 2023 European Franchise Awards. As holder of elite Platinum IIP status, it was also a finalist in\u00a0 the UK Employer of the Year Platinum category in the Investors in People (IIP) Awards 2023.<\/p>\n

In the network over the past 12 months, Revive! Gloucester and Northern Ireland were named start-up businesses of the year in their regions, whilst Waltham Abbey, Northampton, Aberdeen and Portsmouth were all finalist in their local awards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
