19 April 2024 - Hedin Automotive Netherlands, a part of Hedin Mobility Group, has reached an agreement to acquire the BMW and MINI dealer Dubbelsteyn which operates two dealerships near Rotterdam. The acquisition comprises all of the BMW and MINI dealership activities including sales, after-sales services and spare parts sales.

Following the acquisition of BMW dealer group Renova in 2023, Hedin Automotive Netherlands is further expanding its network and range of BMW and MINI from 5 to 7 branches. The acquisition is carried out by Hedin Cars B.V., a subsidiary of Hedin Automotive B.V., and includes Dubbelsteyn’s two dealerships in Dordrecht and Numansdorp. A total of approximately 100 employees will continue their employment within Hedin Automotive after the acquisition and will remain under the leadership of the current management. Post acquisition, Hedin Mobility Group will represent the BMW and MINI brands at 62 locations in 5 countries.

BMW and MINI dealer Dubbelsteyn in Dordrecht and Numansdorp together serve the regions of Dordrecht, Hoeksche Waard, Goeree Overflakkee, Barendrecht and the surrounding area. In 2023, Dubbelsteyn generated a revenue which exceeded € 140 Million and sold more than 3,000 cars. With the acquisition of the two branches, Hedin Automotive strengthens its representation in the province of Zuid-Holland.

Eddy Haesendonck, CEO Hedin Automotive Benelux:
"We are very pleased to be able to add Dubbelsteyn and all employees to our group. Together with our existing BMW and MINI presence in the south of the Netherlands, we significantly expand our market position for BMW and MINI in the region. On behalf of all colleagues at Hedin Automotive, I would like to extend a warm welcome to the Dubbelsteyn team."

The transaction is subject to regulatory approval.
