Fresh Car, an Edinburgh-based mobile car care startup, has secured £500,000 in funding as the firm prepares to launch a ‘SMART repair’ business and acceleration expansion.
Led by Foresight Group, the investment follows an impressive period of growth for the startup, which has doubled headcount since the beginning of the year and expanded across the UK and Ireland.
Fresh Car increased headcount to 14 this year and now boasts 75 franchises.
Additionally, the company said it is targeting a significant increase in franchises in London and the South East of England over the next twelve months.
Sam Brennan, Founder and CEO of Fresh Car, added: “We are demonstrating that there is a new way for people to manage their car care, from cleaning and basic car care, right through to maintenance and repairs.
