Winners were crowned at the annual Independent Automotive Aftermarket Federation (IAAF) Awards, which celebrated those who had succeeded in what was a difficult and challenging year for the sector.

Chief executive Mark Field hailed the event, held in Milton Keynes, “a resounding success” as eight gongs were handed out.

He added: “I’m delighted that we could bring the industry together in such a way.”

Speaking about 2024, Field said: “The Federation is on a journey with its members and our events are a key part of this success. 2024 promises even greater strides with a new website, consumer campaigns, more events and a new motor factor training program.”
