Billionaire Ion Țiriac has embarked upon a campaign to
reorganise his automotive retail division, ȚiriacAuto, which
resulted in part of the regional dealers being integrated into the
biggest sales centre of the company in Bucharest, after the first
such operation inside the group.
Thus, Casa Auto, which sells Mercedes-Benz, Chrysler, Jeep and
Dodge, with a 41.5 million-euro business in 2009, according to
Trade Registry data, merged by absorption with three other dealers
in Bucharest, Oradea and Pitești.
“The decision to take over three of our car dealers by Casa Auto
Bucharest is part of Țiriac Holdings’ strategy to improve
administrative efficiency of our national distribution and service
network ȚiriacAuto,” said Cristina Munteanu, Țiriac Holdings’
communication manager.
The three dealers integrated into Casa Auto, which sell five of the
nine brands in the portfolio of Țiriac Auto, posted 17 million
euros in total business in 2009, and had 114 employees and
cumulated losses of 2.3 million euros, Trade Registry data
reveal.
