German lock maker ABUS, one of the best-regarded brands in motorbike security, has signed a new UK distribution deal with top importer Hoco Parts UK.
Founded in Volmarstein, near Dortmund, Germany, by August Bremicker and his sons in 1924, ABUS is widely regarded as unique in the security world because of how it designs, develops and manufactures its products – proven in the user-friendly Granit Detecto XPlus 8077 and, more recently, the Granit Victory XPlus 68, which is one of the few ‘Powered Cycle’ products to achieve Sold Secure Diamond accreditation.
The brand will be served nationally by Hoco Parts UK’s team of account managers, as well as being fully supported by its internal sales organisation.
Peter Romanov, MD at ABUS UK, said, “Hoco Parts UK is perfectly positioned to help ABUS reach its full potential in the UK. We look forward to working closely together with them to realise our UK ambitions in the territory.”
Mark Fenwick, UK country manager at Hoco Parts UK, said: “We are delighted that ABUS has partnered with us as its exclusive motorcycle distributor and representative in the UK. ABUS is an exciting and innovative brand and we are confident that our support will enhance its offering further, enabling the brand to grow and flourish. ABUS has been a key supplier to the Hoco Parts Group for over 30 years in the company’s mainland European territories, so to add the UK to this is a very positive move and shows the strength of our partnership.”
