MERCEDES-BENZ TRUCKS UK LTD APPOINTS MULTI-PURPOSE EQUIPMENT SPECIALISTS, MULTEVO, AS NEW UNIMOG AUTHORISED AFTERSALES PARTNER

The Lancashire based firm, with depots also in Shropshire and Staffordshire, are suitably aligned to take on the role with over 14 years’ experience supporting customers with specialist and multi-purpose plant, vehicles and equipment nationwide.

Multevo are a multifaceted and customer centric organisation with a range of offerings including plant sales and hire, maintenance and repair, industry training and contracting. They already support most local authorities, major airports and tier 1 highway maintenance contractors across the UK with the ability to provide quick and reliable on-site support.

Multevo’s in-house team of Mercedes-Benz trained technicians have over 50 years of main dealer experience. They are now well equipped to keep Unimog operators on the road providing a range of aftersales services including maintenance, in-depth diagnostic and repair, as well as Mercedes-Benz Genuine Parts supply. Multevo are also manufacturer-backed to provide tailored maintenance packages and warranty cover.

A rigorous process was involved in onboarding Multevo, with Mercedes-Benz Unimog Aftersales Dealer standards ensuring that customers will receive the highest quality of aftersales service. Multevo have also invested in additional tooling and technician training to support operations.
The Unimog is a robust and reliable multi-purpose vehicle able to accept a wide array of implements, popular with agriculture and forestry, municipals, airports, emergency services, energy and construction sectors.
Due to the nature of tasks carried out, it is vital that Unimog customers receive a first-class service.

Leonhard Niemann, Mercedes-Benz Trucks UK’s Head of Network Development, added, “We’re delighted to be working with Multevo to bring even better service coverage to Unimog customers in Lancashire and the surrounding area.”

The move supports the business’s vision in further strengthening their plant and fleet solutions department. For over a decade Multevo have provided maintenance and repair aftersales services for multi-purpose units and associated attachments, including other leading brands.

The business also has a contracting division which includes a portfolio of services in highways, civils, vegetation management and arboriculture. Their experience in self-delivering these services has given them a strong understanding of the importance of keeping machinery operational year-round – a key motivation to engaging in this opportunity.
Nick Leadley, Director at Multevo comments:

“As a business we’re always looking at how we can expand and support market growth through new and exciting service offerings. We feel being aligned to the Unimog brand supplements our existing provisions and ethos around delivering customer driven innovations.”

“In addition, we have nearly a decade of experience in operating multi-purpose equipment to self-deliver maintenance tasks in various terrains and environments and can empathise with operators when equipment is off road.”
“Due to our experience in multi-purpose equipment we’re able to service and repair both the Unimog implement carriers and associated attachments simultaneously to reduce vehicle downtime.”
