VEGE announces move to Markham Vale

A Chesterfield automotive business has expanded with a move to the Markham Vale development, just off the M1 at junction 29a.

VEGE is one of the world’s largest independent aftermarket suppliers of remanufactured petrol and diesel engines. The company offers remanufactured cylinder heads, turbochargers, manual gearboxes, brake calipers, diesel injection pumps & common rail pumps & injectors and brake callipers on an exchange basis.

The company has expanded following 21 years of successful growth in Chesterfield. It is a specialised department owned by the US automotive giant LKQ Corporation, who in turn is the leading provider of alternative aftermarket to the automotive sector with operations in North America, Europe, and Taiwan.

VEGE will continue it’s success from its new base on Greaves Close, which will also offer space for training with a purpose-built conference facility which is proving very popular for teams around the UK. On top of that, Markham Vale offers a convenient, central location next to the motorway, providing an excellent base for the distribution of its products.

A Markham Vale spokesperson commented: “Staff at the company are reported to be very pleased with the move to Markham Vale as the new location provides easy access to the M1 motorway and lots of green space all around…the commute to work just got easier!
We wish Tony Lynn, the Chief Operating Officer, and his colleagues a warm welcome to Markham Vale.”

Development at Markham Vale continues, with property developer HBD bringing forward a new 31,264 sq ft commercial scheme, Markham Vale Trade Park, which could create more than 100 new jobs. Occupiers will also benefit from Gridserve’s new Electric Forecourt being developed on the adjacent plot.

Looking to expand your business? Chesterfield’s strategic location in the centre of the UK makes it an ideal location for companies to grow. Find out more at: https://www.chesterfield.co.uk/business/invest-in-chesterfield/ or email info@chesterfield.co.uk
