Kamux renews its showroom network in Sweden
Kamux, a company specializing in omnichannel trading of preowned cars, is renewing its showroom network in Sweden. During the summer, the showrooms in Sundsvall and Helsingborg will move to larger premises that are better aligned with Kamux’s renewed concept, and the Norrköping showroom will be closed at the end of April. Following the changes Kamux will have 22 showrooms in Sweden.
“In line with our strategy we are taking a critical look at our current showroom network in Sweden. Our goal is a geographically sufficiently comprehensive network of showrooms that are aligned with our concept and located in attractive business locations, and that are slightly larger than our current showrooms. In the short term however, our number one goal in Sweden is to improve profitability. This is why we are closing down the showroom in Norrköping. The closure will affect two employees, who have been offered a possibility to relocate to Kamux’s other showrooms in Sweden,” says Andy Rietschel, Managing Director for Kamux Sweden.
“Sundsvall is our northernmost location in Sweden at the moment and we have found a new showroom with better location and larger capacity. The new location has a strong traffic thanks to adjacent other car related stores and presence of large grocery stores,” continues Andy Rietschel. “The same applies also to our new showroom in Helsingborg.”
A comprehensive network of showrooms is an integral part of Kamux’s omnichannel concept, where customers can choose the most suitable way for them to do business with us and the entire range of cars is available in all channels in all operating countries. The showroom network also enables test drives and car deliveries to be organized conveniently for customers that choose to do business through digital channels, as well as the in-take of trade-in cars.
