AN Irish vehicle solutions provider has added a third premises to its Northern Irish estate to support an ambitious all-island growth strategy.

Radius Vehicle Solutions (RVS), which provides car, van and HGV commercial vehicles service and repair services, has secured a 5,000 sq ft unit in Mallusk in what is a £1 million investment.

The vehicle solutions business, which employs 65 staff across Ireland, incorporates well-known Newtownabbey business Gus Commercials and is part of the global Radius group, having been acquired in September 2022.

The expansion, which will create 10 jobs over the next 12 months, will see the extension of its passenger car and van service centre, to allow RVS to service and repair a larger proportion of vehicles in-house.

Paul McGuire, managing director at RVS, said: “This investment gives us increased scale and capabilities to grow our in-house service and repair offering.

“The new site will facilitate the relocation of the sales and rental departments and host a dedicated customer service centre to enhance the customer experience.”

Ciarán O’Neill, RVS commercial director, added: “We are a one-stop shop for customers who require mixed vehicle leasing, fleet management, service and repair, telematics, dashcams, insurance and fuel cards through our DCI network.

“With an enhanced team, we will be well placed to deliver more for clients than ever before, expand our service offering with them and attract new customers.”

RVS is part of Radius Group (www.radius.com),a global leader in mobility, connectivity and technology solutions.
