Allexim Takes Service Centre Concept to China
One trade company, which isn’t exactly a major market player but nevertheless has a long and successful history in China is the Alltyre Shanghai Trading Co., Ltd. which is owned by a German entrepreneur. The holding company is called Allexim Handel GmbH and is based in Hamburg, Germany. Currently, the company operates three tyre dealerships in Shanghai under the name Alltyre. In addition, there is a wholesaling business which mainly supplies car dealerships with tyres, says Johannes H. Muecke, whose family owns the business. In these three outlets Alltyre sells about 9,000 to 11,000 tyres per year, which is “a reasonably good figure” for Shanghai, Mr Muecke says.
