Over 200 delegates congregated at the Hilton, NEC, for ChipsAway’s annual conference and awards dinner over the weekend, celebrating 21 years as the UK’s leading minor car body paintwork repair brand.

ChipsAway CEO, Tim Harris, kicked off the event – addressing the crowd and highlighting the Franchisor’s key areas for growth and development going forward. This was followed by a marketing update from Universal McCann, who took the opportunity to announce some major plans for TV advertising in 2016 – and shared the huge successes of 2015’s overall campaign so far, which is on target to generate over £40m worth of work in total! A short film featuring five members of the ChipsAway network, spanning all operation sizes – from a ‘man-in-a-van’ growing to the largest CarCare Centre in the UK, was then played to the captive audience, to help inspire and motivate the network and show just what is possible to achieve with a ChipsAway business depending on their ambitions.
