Our operations consists of versatile mobility services and transportation solutions ranging from passenger cars to heavy trucks. In 2018, our turnover was EUR 1.2 bn, of which more than a fifth came from Sweden and the Baltics. Our company has been owned by the same family since its founding.
Through its dealership network, Auto-Bon Oy imports, markets and sells Citroën and Peugeot passenger cars and vans, spare parts, accessories and related services to consumers in Finland. Auto-Bon Oy is a subsidiary of Bassadone Automotive Group.
Veho Eesti was founded in 1992. The company imports Citroën passenger and commercial vehicles in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, as well as provides retail and service for Citroën in Estonia. In addition, the company retails Honda in Tallinn. In 2018, Veho Estonia had a turnover of EUR 74 mln and 121 employees at the end of the year.
The parties have agreed not to publish the purchase price or other acquisition-related details. The acquisition is subject to approval by competition authorities.
