Irizar, a Spanish-based bus and coach manufacturer, has officially inaugurated its new UK headquarters near Blyth, Nottinghamshire, designed to provide a one-stop shop for its customers around the country.
The new Irizar UK premises includes a modern showroom, dedicated coach handover areas, office accommodation, and extensive coach parking, along with workshop and warehousing capability ahead of the launch of a new parts business.
This new parts business, due to open over the summer, will sit alongside Irizar UK’s growing in-house pre-delivery inspection (PDI) and service capabilities, forming a comprehensive portfolio of wrap-around support.
The integrated approach is designed to ensure customers benefit from a seamless ownership experience, underpinned by expert support at every stage.
Irizar’s new facility builds on three years of record delivery volumes and serves as a statement of confidence in the UK market for its Spanish parent company.
Imanol Rego, Irizar Group CEO said: “Given the positive projections for the following years, Irizar UK has gone one step further to support future growth while enhancing customer experience and operational efficiency.
“This new headquarters is therefore not a short-term decision, it is a strategic investment that reflects our confidence in the UK market, in our customers, and above all in the Irizar UK team.
“It gives us proximity, it gives us capability, and it gives us the platform to continue bringing advanced, reliable and sustainable technologies closer to our UK customers.”
Irizar UK has also announced the promotion of Mark Jordan to Operations and Aftersales Director, as well as the appointment of Sam Williams as UK Parts Manager.
