Deutz acquires Spanish dealer

German engine manufacturer Deutz has acquired its Spanish dealer Tallers Soler, and will operate the business as one of its own service centres.

Founded in 1973, Barcelona based Tallers Soler has been a close partner of Deutz for more than 40 years, and one of the largest suppliers of Deutz parts and engines in Spain. As a Deutz owned service centre it joins a network that includes a wholly owned sales and service centre in Madrid and 21 contract dealers.

Founder Juli Soler said: “I repaired my first Deutz tractor when I was only 15, and I have worked very closely with Deutz during the 67 years that have passed since then. I am very proud of that, and I’m delighted that our work will be continued by Deutz.”

Deutz senior vice president for sales and service Georg Diderich added: “We are delighted that we are able to expand our presence in Spain with the new Deutz service centre in Barcelona, and so get even closer to our customers.”
