Brands at TPS expands product range from Volkswagen Group UK
Volkswagen Group UK’s trade parts arm, TPS, is expanding its range with the launch of Brands at TPS this summer.
By partnering with respected third party brands, TPS will offer customers a greater choice of parts available through its 83 UK centres.
In the initial phase, ‘Brands at TPS’ will offer around 2,000 parts through partnerships with Bosch, ZF, Mahle, SKF, Hella, and Valeo. It plans to increase this more than 10,000 as further brands are added to the portfolio.
Catherine Baker, head of TPS, said: “We are proud to launch ‘Brands at TPS’ and in doing so boost our parts offering to our customers. We’ve always been genuine [parts] first and that doesn’t change. We remain dedicated to genuine as our primary offer, but we can now offer a one-stop-shop for our mechanical customers’ needs, including a wide-ranging selection of third-party branded parts.
“So, whether it’s genuine parts for a five-year-old car or reliable, more affordable parts for a 10-year-old one, we aim to become the trusted one-stop-shop for keeping vehicles on the road – quickly, efficiently, and with unmatched expertise.”

The new ‘Brands at TPS’ product range will also be supported by the technical knowledge and advice of TPS teams, who will be able to outline the differences between the new product lines.
Baker concluded:
“This new development means a wider range delivered through our existing network and helps to make TPS the parts supplier the aftermarket trade can trust for pretty much everything they require. Coupled with our six-day-a week deliveries and trusted reputation built over nearly 20 years, we’re confident that ‘Brands at TPS’ will be a benefit to our customers, and in turn their customers.”
