MPS Bilskade acquires Vinger lakk og karosseri AS
MPS Bilskade, part of Cary Group, has acquired 100 percent of Vinger Lakk og karosseri AS, a franchise workshop located in Kongsvinger in Norway. Vinger lakk og Karosseri was founded in 2006 and is family-owned.
"MPS Bilskade is very pleased that Vinger Lakk og Karosseri has chosen to become a wholly owned workshop for us. They will be an important part of our network as it will be the first own workshop in the Inland region in Norway. I am pleased that Robert and his team are joining MPS Bilskade and look forward to our continued collaboration," says Jan Lindberg, CEO of MPS Bilskade.
"I am pleased that we at Vinger Lakk og Karosseri will continue our journey together with MPS Bilskade. As a wholly owned workshop, it gives us continued opportunities and closer cooperation with the other workshops in their network,” says Robert Nygård, founder and owner of Vinger lakk og karoseri.
Vinger lakk og karosseri has 14 employees and has been owned and operated to this day by founder Robert Nygård, who continues as workshop manager even after the acquisition.
MPS Bilskade is Norway's leading body and paint company and owns 13 workshops but operates with a franchise network of a total of 38 workshops. Since 2001, they have been part of the European vehicle glass company Cary Group.
