Today, Tackwood MOT & Service Centre celebrates 55 years in business!
Fifty-five years. It’s hard to put into words what that really means.
Today feels like the perfect moment to pause, reflect, and appreciate just how far we’ve come.
What started 55 years ago has grown into something incredibly special – a business built on hard work, honesty, family values, and a genuine commitment to looking after our customers and community.
Over those five and a half decades, we’ve seen so much change. The motor industry has evolved beyond recognition, technology has transformed the way we work, and we’ve faced our fair share of challenges along the way. But one thing has remained constant: our determination to keep moving forward while staying true to who we are.
This year, more than ever, has reminded us what an incredible journey it has been.
Family Business of the Year
Business Woman of the Year
National recognition for the next generation, with Dominic being named one of Automechanika’s Thirty Under 30
Qualifying once again for the National Small Business Awards
These achievements aren’t just about awards or titles. They tell a much bigger story.
A story of three generations of one family, working together, learning together, and building something to be proud of.
A story of resilience, growth, and never standing still.
A story that simply wouldn’t exist without our incredible team, our loyal customers, our suppliers, and the community that has supported us throughout the years.
To my Dad, who laid the foundations all those years ago and whose hard work and values still guide us today – thank you.
To our team, past and present – thank you.
To every customer who has trusted us with their vehicles over the last 55 years – thank you.
And to our family, who continue to live and breathe this business every single day – thank you.
We are immensely proud of what we’ve achieved together, but even more excited about what the future holds.
Here’s to celebrating 55 incredible years of Tackwood… and to writing the next chapter of our story together.
