MV Commercial moves into ex-TOM site in Airdrie14 December 2018

Commercial vehicle business MV Commercial has expanded into a multi-million pound “super site” in Airdrie, after its largest ever investment into the site formerly owned by TOM Vehicle Rental.

The new eight-acre site enables MV Commercial to house its sales, hire, leasing, finance, maintenance, engineering and painting facilities under one roof.

The 90,000 sq ft of internal work space includes multiple workshops with 36 commercial vehicle ramps, HGV inspection pits, a paint and blast facility with eight booths, ATF test lanes, tacho bay and Class 7 MOT testing facilities.

Additionally, the site has over six acres of vehicle storage space for MV Commercial’s fleet of Ready to Go trucks for immediate hire, lease, or rent-to-buy.

The Airdrie facility will operate in addition to MV Commercial’s existing three depots in Luton, Haydock and Livingston, and the expansion is expected to create new jobs in the area, including several apprenticeships.

Tom O’Rourke, CEO of MV Commercial, says: “This is an exciting new chapter in our business. This is the company’s largest ever investment in property and shows our drive and determination to dramatically expand the business into new arenas.”
