Automotive growth company Wetteri's cooperation with Kia and Mitsubishi is expanding. The first new opening is Wetteri's location in Lempäälä, whose operating concept will change from the used car centre to the sale of new cars and car maintenance. Wetteri already has a Kia representation in Joensuu and Kajaani. With expanding cooperation, Wetteri's Kia and Mitsubishi representation will grow to new cities.

Aarne Simula, CEO and President, Wetteri Plc:

"We are very pleased with the expanding Kia representation, starting from Lempäälä and growing even further. We're happy with our cooperation with Kia-importer Astara Finland Oy. We believe this is one of the important drivers of organic growth, as Kia is one of the most popular car brands in our country."

Miska Tammelin, CEO, Astara Finland Oy

"A well-functioning and committed retail and service network is key in today's fierce competition. Our cooperation with Wetter has been successful and now is the right time to expand this activity."
