The Kwik-Fit Group, with its headquarters in United Kingdom, is the largest independent automotive parts, repair and replacement specialists in Europe and one of the largest in the world. With close to 2000 service outlets across Europe, it services over 7.5 million motorists every year across Europe. As a market leader in passenger car tyres, Kwik-Fit houses various leading brands. Commenting on this tie-up Martin Post, General Director, Kwik-Fits, noted, “Apollo is a trendy brand that suits the character of Kwik-Fit. We very much look forward to offering our customers quality tyres from Apollo.” Speaking on the occasion, Rob Oudshoorn, CEO, Apollo Vredestein B V, highlighted, “Kwik-Fit is a recognised tyre specialist in Europe and naturally we are happy to be associated with their vast network. We believe that our mutually beneficial alliance with Kwik-Fit in Holland will enable us to reach out to more customers, introducing them to the joy of using an Apollo product. Brand Apollo, which had entered the European market in June 2010, is currently available in the Netherlands, Germany, the United Kingdom and Italy, even as we consider spreading ourselves to newer geographies. An alliance like this will only make us that much more nimble footed.”
