A Leominster garage has scooped another major national award after being named ‘Garage of the Year’ at a prestigious industry event.

Oldfields Garage, based in Enterprise Park, was recognised at the first-ever Castrol Service Conference, held at Celtic Manor in Newport, Wales, on Friday 21st March. The award, part of Castrol’s ‘Forever Forward Awards,’ celebrates independent garages that deliver outstanding service and expertise.

Tim Benson, managing director at Oldfields Garage, said: “We take immense pride in delivering outstanding service to our customers, and to be recognised among so many of the UK’s leading independent garages is something special.

“Our commitment to investing in technology, training, and customer experience ensures we remain at the forefront, and this award is a reflection of that dedication.”

Mr. Benson was joined by Oldfields vehicle technician, Sam Peters, as they collected the award together in recognition of their team’s hard work.

The Castrol Service Conference brought together more than 260 independent garages from across the UK and Ireland. Attendees took part in workshops on topics such as digital marketing and business management, while also learning about Castrol’s latest products and services. The event ended with a gala dinner, where the ‘Forever Forward Awards’ were presented.

This latest accolade adds to a string of major industry honours the garage has received over the past year, further cementing its reputation for excellence.

Oldfields Garage has built a strong reputation in Herefordshire and beyond, providing MOT testing, servicing, diagnostics, and repairs for cars and vans. Thefamily-run business is set to expand in the coming weeks with the launch of a dedicated electric vehicle (EV) bay to meet the growing demand for EV maintenance. It is also extending its commercial vehicle and motorhome servicing facilities.

Mr Benson added: “This award really reflects the hard work of our entire team, and we’d like to thank our loyal customers for their continued support. We’re committed to providing the best service possible and look forward to continuing to serve the local community.”
