GSF Car Parts accelerates expansion strategy with 20 sites
GSF Car Parts has announced plans to open an additional 20 new branches in 2026.
The company has bucked a wider trend in the UK vehicle aftermarket by growing more than 20% in each of the last three years and last July it celebrated a landmark 200 branches.
It now operates 206 branch locations.
GSF Car Parts has not revealed the exact locations of the new centres, but 12 sites are already confirmed and will open by the end of April. This includes a relocation to a better facility for the existing branch in Burgess Hill.
A further eight branches are being considered for the second half of the year as part of a planned expansion, backed by investment of more than £100m in the last 18 months alone, that saw 12 new branches open last year and 15 in 2024.
Momentum
Steve Horne, CEO at GSF Car Parts, said: “GSF has momentum and we are looking for more success in 2026. Off the back of a brilliant 2025 which also saw industry-leading growth for legacy branches, we start our branch expansion programme a full three months ahead of where we were last year.
“We’re determined to be the employer of choice, offering the best rewards and opportunities for success.
“We are on track to accelerate the growth seen last year and it’s based around doing everything we can to serve our customers and empowering our local team. We are pushing ahead with our sights fully set on becoming the UK’s number one aftermarket distributor.”
