The new flagship Port Klang dealership is the latest phase of Volvo’s expansion plan

satisfaction.
Mats Nilsson, Managing Director of Volvo Malaysia said “As one of the most important
commercial vehicle brands globally, Volvo Trucks has enjoyed terrific growths of close to
five decades of operating in Malaysia. The opening of business at our Port Klang flagship
marks the pinnacle of our network expansion strategy. It not only further fortifies the Volvo
brand in this market, but also demonstrates our commitment and continued capabilities based
on global standards to all our customers in Malaysia. This dealership will also support
customers of Volvo Buses. As such, we are very pleased to have this opportunity to continue
our track record of success and strengthen our relationship with our stakeholders.”
The prominent dealership is built with modern workshop design and constructed columns for
double bays, allowing for easier drive-in and out for the trucks which come in for service or
repair. It has 20 workstations at the space area of 10 double bays and is able to accommodate
service and repair work for up to 24 trucks a day.
As Volvo’s largest dealership in the country to-date, the location offers ample parking space
for trucks, good traffic flow, efficient workshop layout and modern workshop equipment.

The workshop area is also equipped with computer system to facilitate mechanic clocking and
reference to IMPACT system, which support the mechanics in search of part number for
specific chassis and repair manual.
Nilsson further said, “The location of our Port Klang flagship dealership is very strategic as it
is located along the main transport flow. There is a population of at least 2,000 trucks in the
Port Klang area and we are sitting at the heart of it. Many of our customers are here or have
logistics activities in this area, thus this dealership definitely enhances our reach and
readiness to service them whenever they need us.”
