With 25 years of experience in the IT industry, our highly skilled engineers provide a complete suite of IT solutions that include everything you need from an IT and telecom provider.
Since our founder and director, Gary Mullineaux, first started supplying local computer shops with computer components in 1996, Carrera UK has evolved into a full-service IT, media, and telecoms company, providing IT support and solutions for small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs). Many of these small businesses have grown with us since then, and we are very happy to continue to support them to this day.
We are customer-focused and ready to respond immediately to any issue no matter how small or complex, as we understand how much businesses rely on their IT and telecoms. We provide powerful, robust, and secure IT solutions that are cost-effective and have a talented and friendly team ready to respond to your requests. For those highly specialised and complex issues, we work with an extended team of specialist consultants to get the job done.
We understand the importance of a fast and efficient IT system. Our focus is to look after our customers in a professional and friendly way. No matter how trivial or complex an issue is, it’s never too much trouble.

About Gary
I started Carrera UK in 1996 when dial-up internet and green text screens were the norm. The business has evolved into a full service IT, web and telecoms company. I’m really proud of our talented team that has made the company the success it is today. The support team continue to maintain the customer service levels that have always been at the core of the business. In my spare time, I like anything to do with motorbikes, cars, boats and live music.
