Intertruck is sold to Turkey
UK-based Unipart Group has sold its Intertruck business to the 1950-founded group Sampa. Mike Ferris, Unipart International managing director explained the reason for the transaction: "Unipart continues its focus on growth in strategic markets outside of the heavy commercial vehicle parts sector."
Intertruck, part of Unipart International, is an importer and distributor of truck and trailer parts, workshop tools and transport consumables. Its head office and central warehouse are located in Rotterdam, and it supplies products to customers in Europe either directly or through trading partners. The company also has locations in Zambia, Africa. Around 50 people currently work for Intertruck.
Sampa is a major global manufacturer and distributor in the commercial vehicle aftermarket sector. With its headquarters in Turkey, the business supplies products to over 160 countries and has over 3,500 employees worldwide. (sh)
