Exciting Announcement: Launch Tech UK Acquired and Head Office to Relocate to Milton Keynes
By Launch Tech UK & Ireland on Apr 22, 2025 11:00:00 AM
We are thrilled to share an exciting milestone in the journey of Launch Tech UK Ltd. As of today, Launch Tech UK has been officially acquired by Launch Europe GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary of Launch Tech Co. Ltd, the global leader in diagnostic and automotive aftermarket equipment. This acquisition marks the beginning of a new chapter for our company as we continue to grow and enhance our presence in the UK.
A Strategic Relocation to Milton Keynes
As part of this acquisition, we are pleased to announce that our head office will be relocating to Milton Keynes later this year. This move is a key part of our ongoing commitment to excellence, innovation, and superior customer service.
The move to Milton Keynes will allow us to enhance our customer service capabilities, expand product training opportunities, and improve operational efficiency. This central location offers better connectivity and access to a wider talent pool, enabling us to strengthen our brand across the UK.
A Farewell to Dave Richards
After 20 successful years at the helm, Dave Richards, our owner and Managing Director, will be retiring this August. Dave’s leadership has been instrumental in building Launch Tech UK into a trusted name in the automotive diagnostics sector. His decision to retire comes after careful consideration, believing that the best future for the company lies within the Launch Tech worldwide family.
We want to extend our deepest gratitude to Dave for his vision, dedication, and the exceptional leadership he provided over the years. His legacy will continue to inspire us as we move forward.
Plymouth Operations Continue
During the transition to our new Milton Keynes office, our Plymouth location will remain fully operational. There will be no disruption to services, and we are committed to maintaining the high levels of customer service and support that our partners and customers have come to expect from us.
Looking Ahead
The acquisition and relocation signify more than just a change of address. They represent a renewed focus on growth, customer satisfaction, and continued innovation. We remain committed to providing the same high-quality service, products, and support our customers rely on. The next chapter of Launch Tech UK is a bright one, and we’re excited to take this journey with you.
Thank you to all our loyal customers, partners, and colleagues for your ongoing support. Stay connected with us for the latest updates on our relocation and other exciting developments.
