Robins & Day adds Vauxhall to Distrigo hub
PSA-owned dealer group Robins & Day has opened its first new generation Distrigo Parts Hub in Hayes. This is a relocation and expansion of the previous Slough site, the largest within the group, already exceeding £35m annual sales.
The move is required as PSA add Vauxhall into its Distrigo Parts Distribution network from May 2020, with the withdrawal of direct parts supply from Vauxhall Dealers.
The investment in a brand new 45,000 sqft facility is the first of the five Robins & Day Parts Hubs to relocate. Work is underway now fitting out new sites in Bristol and Derby, with Birmingham and Manchester following in the spring.
These Hubs will now also supply Vauxhall Parts, as well as the existing manufacturer ranges for Peugeot, Citroen and DS vehicles, the group’s Eurorepar all-makes range, and Supplier brand parts ranges.
Simon Tarrant, Robins & Day aftersales director said: “This is a clear opportunity to further grow our parts trade business with the full PSA parts product ranges – not just to large bodyshops, but independent repairers too, that can benefit from multi-brand products and one-hour motorcycle delivery.”
