Employer Description:
A.G. Bracey Limited was founded in 1962 by Mr Alan Bracey after he served an apprenticeship at Longwell Green Coachworks in the 1950’s. Initially the Company was established within the old farm buildings of Chesley Hill, Bridgeyate in Bristol. The site was used to repair accident damaged cars and light commercial vehicles. In the early 1970’s a change of direction occurred which took the Company into the manufacture of Commercial Vehicle Bodywork. The new direction proved to be highly successful and led to a reputation for high quality bespoke bodywork for Blue Chip Companies such as South Western Electricity Board, British Gas, British Road Services, British Rail and the Home Office, as well as standard bodywork for local dealerships.
