In June [2024], many companies in our industry hit a global cyber attack. We didn't work for three days, we restored everything relatively quickly. Because of this, we had less than 108 million rubles of revenue, - said Garankov.

In June 2024, cybercriminals carried out the largest cyber attack on car dealers. The attackers targeted the CDK Global software, which manages almost all aspects of the dealership. This software is used by approximately 15 thousand dealers abroad - almost all of them were forced to suspend work due to the introduction of the virus.^[1]

When developing the updated brand book, we relied on the legacy of the past logo, but made it more relevant, consistent with the level of development of our company, "said Tatyana Ovchinnikova, director of the FIT SERVICE international network of car services. - We retained our positive orange color as the basis of the brand identity, but transformed the logo. The thin lines changed to a massive, confident, modern font. The logo reflects the status of the business, its growth and success.

The changes that have taken place with the business over the past decade have been so significant that there has been a need for rebranding. It was important for us that the new image fully comply with the current principles and mission of the company. FIT SERVICE is no longer just a car service, but a company that fully takes care of the car, "added Tatyana Ovchinnikova. - These meanings formed the basis of the updated brand.

Stations with an updated design have already begun to open in Russia and Kazakhstan. A special design project is being developed for each car service of the network.
