Leo Group, owner of Mercedes-Benz dealer group Bell Truck and Van, has announced it will open a Mercedes-Benz Vans site in Aberdeen.

The new sales and aftersales site, on Altens Industrial Estate, will open in June of this year.

Bell Truck and Van’s managing director Ben Sowersby (pictured) said: “We are committed to retaining as many members as possible of the team who worked at the Aberdeen site prior to our ownership, and now look forward to working with established customers in Scotland.”

It will be operating from the Altens Industrial Estate in June 2018 and compliments the Group’s existing sites in Billingham, Longbenton, Spennymoor and Stockton-on-Tees.

Mercedes-Benz Vans’ managing director Steve Bridge said: “We’re pleased to announce that there will again be representation in Aberdeen and the surrounding areas to enable customers to purchase new and used Mercedes-Benz Vans and to support customer vehicles with servicing, repair and maintenance, helping to keep local businesses moving.”
