Nissan appoints eight Volvo Truck and Bus Centres to distribute light trucks
22nd August 2007
Following the announcement made on the eve of the Commercial Vehicle Show earlier this year that the two companies were in discussions, Nissan has now signed an official agreement with Volvo Trucks on UK distribution.
As part of the agreement, eight Volvo Truck and Bus Centres have now formally become part of the Nissan Commercial Vehicle Dealer Network (NCVDN) and, once preparations have been completed, will be eligible to sell and carry out service, repair and warranty work on Nissan’s Interstar and Cabstar models.
Targeting their heavy commercial vehicle customer and prospects, the Volvo Truck and Bus Centres will complement Nissan’s existing CV dealers which are primarily focused on local businesses and small fleet opportunities.
Before DaimlerChrysler’s acquisition of a stake in Mitsubishi Fuso, Volvo Trucks’ other-brand light truck offering was provided by the Mitsubishi Canter.
