Home About Us - F&G Commercials

F&G Commercials was formed in 1995 by Frank Woodhead and Glenn Stevenson.

Frank and Glenn trained as truck technicians, serving their apprenticeships at BRS Barnsley and BRS Leeds respectively. Having both risen to manage their workshops, an opportunity arose to form their own business to maintain a number of heavy truck and trailer fleets in the South and West Yorkshire areas. For this they acquired a 2.5 acres site in Carlton Industrial Estate, just north of Barnsley.

F&G became a franchised DAF Service Dealer in 1998, and a body repair shop was integrated in 1999. Due to increasing demand for body and paintwork the building was extended to include two preparation bays and a 70 feet long paint bay in 2001. Shortly thereafter a commercial chassis jig and laser alignment equipment were installed.

In 2003 a 9 bay commercial workshop became available nearby and this was acquired and all workshop activity moved there, thus making more space available for the bodyshop to continue with its expansion.

In October 2005, F&G Commercials acquired Doves Truck and Van Limited of Huddersfield – an established DAF and LDV Main Dealer.

With the addition of this significant Vehicle Sales and Parts operation, and more workshop space, F&G Commercials are now developing the combined businesses in all existing areas, and expanding further into used truck sales. The SsangYong franchise was added in 2008.
