9^th November 2026: GSF Car Parts, the UK’s fastest-growing motor factor, is proud to have been named winner of the Best Community Campaign award at the Northern Ireland Motor Industry Awards, held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Belfast last week.

The Northern Ireland Motor Industry Awards recognise outstanding achievement across the region’s automotive sector.

GSF won the award for its community campaign in connection with the hugely successful Macmillan Motor Show in June 2026.

The new branch, located in the Turkington Complex in Portadown, opened in June. GSF was then selected as headline sponsor following its broader expansion into Northern Ireland, opening three branches including a Regional Distribution Centre in 2026.

The event became the biggest and most successful in its history, raising more than £58,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support. The campaign attracted more than 300 trade customers to the new branch, helping establish GSF’s presence in the region.

GSF was also honoured to sponsor the Apprentice Award, which was presented to Jack Harvison of NI Body Stop.

David McKee, GSF Regional Manager for Northern Ireland, said: “It was a brilliant evening celebrating the motor industry in Northern Ireland and an honour to pick up the award. We did ourselves proud by collaborating with colleagues, suppliers and influencers as one team to deliver a campaign that generated significant visibility for the new branch and, most importantly, helped raise vital funds for charity by going above and beyond as one team.

“It was an honour to receive this award for being part of such an amazing community event.”

Steve Horne, Chief Executive Officer at GSF, added: “This is a prime example of our ‘Do Yourself Proud’ culture in action. The team’s commitment to supporting both the local community and strengthening relationships with local garages has been rightly recognised through this award. Congratulations to everyone involved.”
