  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE Ref: 2016/03 SMT Group takes Moroccan Volvo CE distribution Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) has announced that it is divesting its business within Volvo Maroc SA to a longstanding distribution partner SMT Group. Subject to regulatory approval, the agreement between SMT Group and Volvo CE will come into effect in the second quarter of 2016 and cover the sale, importation and distribution of Volvo and SDLG branded construction equipment products and services in Morocco. Volvo CE business and employees will transfer to SMT, along with all warranties and service agreements, maintaining the Volvo brand’s strong customer relationships and high quality of service in Morocco. SBMH who is distributing the SDLG brand products in Morocco, will continue to act under the new direction of SMT. “Our colleagues at Volvo Maroc have built up the Volvo CE business in Morocco almost from scratch over the last 10 years and benefited from a close association with the strong Volvo Truck brand image in the country,” says Tomas Kuta, president of Volvo CE’s Europe, Middle East and Africa sales region. “We now feel that further growth would be best achieved by a strong independent dealer, one that can offer the right investments and give the opportunity to develop new business and achieve economies of scale as part of a large group in North West Africa. “With many years of experience doing business in North and West Africa, and with a clear vision for growth in the region, SMT is an ideal partner to take over and grow the Volvo CE business in Morocco,” Kuta concludes.
