BEVOLA, an independent distributor, is to become the exclusive partner for SAF-HOLLAND OE in Norway and Denmark, and the exclusive partner for Assali Stefen OE throughout Scandinavia
BEVOLA is strengthening its position in the Scandinavian market through new strategic agreements with SAF-HOLLAND and Assali Stefen. The company is becoming the exclusive partner for SAF-HOLLAND OE and an aftermarket distributor in Norway and Denmark, whilst also continuing to secure exclusive rights to sell Assali Stefen OE products in Norway, Sweden and Denmark. These agreements mark an important step in BEVOLA’s continued expansion in Scandinavia and enable the company to offer its customers an even broader and more comprehensive product range. With strong brands and an expanded range of products and solutions, this strengthens BEVOLA’s role as a total supplier to the bodybuilder, transport and commercial vehicle sectors.
This initiative builds on BEVOLA’s aim to be an attractive partner for both existing and new customers. By bringing together several leading brands and solutions in a single portfolio, BEVOLA can offer a more comprehensive product range and make it easier for customers to find the solutions they need from a single supplier. SAF-HOLLAND is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of chassis-related systems and components for lorries and trailers. Its product portfolio includes, amongst other things, axle and suspension systems, fifth wheels, coupling systems, kingpins, support legs and braking systems. The Group is behind a number of recognised brands, including SAF, HOLLAND, Haldex, Assali Stefen, Neway, Tecma, KLL, V.ORLANDI and YORK.
For BEVOLA, these exclusive agreements represent a natural extension of the company’s strategy to be a comprehensive and competent partner for customers in the Scandinavian transport industry.
– The partnership with SAF-HOLLAND fits very well with our existing product portfolio and our ambitions for the Scandinavian market. Our customers are increasingly demanding complete solutions from fewer suppliers. With SAF-HOLLAND and their strong brands in our portfolio, we can offer even more of what customers need from a single partner,” says Per Egil Holm, Managing Director of BEVOLA.
Strengthening the team with solid SAF-HOLLAND expertise
As part of this initiative, BEVOLA is also strengthening its organisation with a new employee who has extensive experience from SAF-HOLLAND. Peter Lentsch brings with him comprehensive product, market and industry knowledge. This appointment will help to ensure continuity, a high level of technical expertise and effective support for both existing and new customers.
– “It is important to us that this initiative is not just about expanding our product range. We also need the expertise to ensure that customers receive the right advice, technical support and service. With Peter Lentsch on the team, we gain valuable experience and in-depth knowledge of both the products and the market,” says Per Egil of BEVOLA.
A more comprehensive offering for customers
BEVOLA currently supplies a wide range of components and solutions to, amongst others, bodybuilders, hauliers and players in the lorry and commercial vehicle industry. With the SAF-HOLLAND portfolio, the company gains further products that complement its existing range. The aim is to make it easier for customers to source a larger proportion of their purchases from a single supplier – with a local presence, high product expertise and efficient logistics. SAF-HOLLAND has a strong international position in the commercial vehicle sector and supplies products to vehicle manufacturers on six continents. The group also has an extensive aftermarket business and a global distribution and service network.
For BEVOLA, the partnership is also a key element of the company’s long-term growth strategy.
– We have clear ambitions to continue our growth in Scandinavia and further develop BEVOLA as a leading supplier to the bodybuilder, transport and commercial vehicle industries. The partnership with SAF-HOLLAND is an important step on this journey. We gain strong brands, a broader product range and further expertise that creates value for our customers, says Holm.
