East Anglian bodyshop supplier BeeBee Refinishing Supplies has added a third distribution base.

The expansion results from its acquisition of HRG Vehicle Paints & Panel in King's Lynn, Norfolk.

BeeBee Refinishing Supplies, a member of the IRIS distribution group, already operates from branches in Halstead in Essex and Ipswich in Suffolk.

HRG Vehicle Paints & Panel has been managed by Bob Walker and his team for the last 30 years.

Steve Masters, managing director of BeeBee Refinishing Supplies, said: “We’re dedicated to providing the highest quality service to our customers and it was a proud moment for the company to move from a two to three branch operation.

"The move enables us to strengthen our geographical coverage and added value service offering to repairers.”
