ESSEX, England -

In March, IAA expanded its U.S. locations in Missouri as well as in Florida. Now that it’s April, IAA turned its attention to its European operations.

IAA recently announced that its U.K.-based business unit has expanded its IAA Hixon branch. According to a news release, this investment increases the branch’s inventory space by more than 30%, accommodating strong customer demand and inventory needs in the midlands.

“The expansion of the IAA Hixon branch supports our broader strategic growth initiatives in the UK,” said Steve Hankins, U.K. managing director for IAA.

“The additional capacity will create significant operating efficiencies and drive a reduction in transportation costs, all while providing a best-in-class experience for buyer and seller customers,” Hankins added.

The Hixon branch is located at Airfield Industrial Estate, Hixon, Stafford. A listing of preview days and sales days at the branch can be found at iaaiuk.co.uk.
