Van Mossel is making its next big move into the German market with Mercedes-Benz!

Eric Berkhof's Company took over Nord-Ostsee Automobiles, one of the largest Mercedes Distributors in Germany and the No.1 Hyundai Dealer in the German market.

WAALWIJK (ANP)—Dutch car dealer group Van Mossel Automotive Group is taking over a German industry peer, which is active in the regions of Hamburg, Schleswig-Holstein, Berlin, and Hannover. Car, van, and truck dealer Nord-Ostsee Automobile, with forty branches in Germany, will become an important company within Van Mossel's international branch, the group reports.

Van Mossel is taking over all 38 dealerships and two damage repair companies of the German group. Some 1,800 people work at Nord-Ostsee Automobile, which trades in cars from Mercedes-Benz, Smart, Hyundai and Aston Martin. The takeover still has to be approved by the competition authorities.

The takeover will increase Van Mossel's international branch to 3,300 employees and a turnover of 1.8 billion euros. Van Mossel also took over the German dealer group Hugo Pfohe in May last year.

The 75-year-old Van Mossel has 459 branches in the Netherlands, Germany, France, and the United Kingdom, among other countries. The company sells more than 186,000 new and used cars annually.
