Over 200 people enjoyed an historic and emotional evening as guests at a special dinner held as part of Autoelectro’s 30th anniversary celebrations.

Past and present members of staff, colleagues and friends joined in the fun, all of whom have helped transform the company into a high successful remanufacturer and supplier of starters and alternators over the last three decades.

The management trio of Tony, Paul and Nicky Bhogal all made unique speeches, taking a trip down memory lane by reliving some poignant highlights throughout the last 30 years. Special thanks were extended to key personalities in the company’s development and a moving tribute was paid to Santokh Bhogal, who established the Bradford-based business but passed away in 1996 at the age of 55.

A cartoon video illustrated caricatures of Autoelectro’s family of staff members as superheroes, while the ‘real’ heroes were each presented with an award to thank them for their hard work, commitment and loyalty. A special cake, iced in Autoelectro’s red livery and special ‘30’ logo, proved another popular attraction.
