HELSINKI, May 9, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Kamux, a company
specialising in used car sales, is continuing its strong
growth.
Kamux is further expanding its operations in Germany by opening a new showroom in Heide
during the early autumn in 2019.
We are well positioned to drive growth in Germany
"The Heide showroom is Kamux's no. 6 showroom in Germany. The Heide showroom is about 50
minutes drive away from Kamux's Nedderfeld Hamburg and Elmshorn
showrooms. We have a clear focus in our expansion and we are well
positioned in northern Germany to
drive growth. I am delighted with our upcoming showroom launches in
Tostedt and Heide and our pace of expansion," says Oliver Michels, German Country Director.
Heide is a medium-sized town in the northernmost state of
Schleswig-Holstein with about 20,000 inhabitants, and in the wider
region there are 70,000 inhabitants in all.
Strengthening both our presence and car selection
"The new showroom launch is strengthening both our presence and
car selection. The number of cars in the Heide showroom will be
about 110 but obviously the whole Kamux's car stock is available
for our customers. Kamux's Heide showroom is located in a vivid car
dealership and retail area. This offers us an excellent opportunity
to be near customers," says Oliver
Michels, German Country Director.
Customers in Germany
appreciate our strengths
"I am excited about our expansion in Germany. In 2018, we doubled our showrooms and
this year we have announced two new openings. Customers have found
us in Germany, and they value our
strengths: attractive pricing, strong service culture and digital
presence with its transparency. Kamux is a forerunner in used car
sales, and we are expanding in German market with resolution," says
Olli Kilpi, Director of
International Business.
Creating new jobs
"Hiring locally is important to us. The expansion and new
showroom launch will result in the creation of four new full-time
jobs. Kamux has a unique training programme where new employees
will have the opportunity to learn the profession and customer
service skills. We'll start recruiting the Heide sales team soon.
The right attitude is key, so previous experience in car sales is
not essential," says Oliver Michels,
German Country Director.
Kamux Corporation is a retail chain specializing in the sale of
used cars and related integrated services that has grown rapidly.
The first Kamux car showroom started its operations in 2003 in
Hämeenlinna, Finland and the
company currently has 47 car showrooms in Finland, fifteen in Sweden and four in Germany. Since its founding, the company has
sold more than 200,000 used cars, of which 46,596 were
sold in 2018. Kamux's revenue reached EUR 527.8 million
in 2018. In 2018, Kamux's average number of employees
was 472 in terms of full-time equivalent employees. The
shares of Kamux are listed on Nasdaq Helsinki.
