Le plus grand r\u00e9seau ind\u00e9pendant de carrosserie automobile de Belgique change de propri\u00e9taire. Apr\u00e8s avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 sous l'\u00e9gide d'une soci\u00e9t\u00e9 de capital-investissement pendant un certain temps, AutoRepairGroup a \u00e9t\u00e9 rachet\u00e9 par son homologue finlandais Suvia. Cela semble \u00eatre un premier signe d'une vague de consolidation qui va se propager dans le secteur, alors que les v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques red\u00e9finissent les r\u00e8gles du jeu.<\/p>\n

AutoRepairGroup exploite quatorze sites \u00e0 travers la Belgique, emploie environ 450 personnes et traite quelque 45 000 interventions de r\u00e9paration par an depuis son si\u00e8ge social situ\u00e9 \u00e0 Heverlee.<\/p>\n

Avec une part de march\u00e9 de 6%, il s'agit de la plus grande cha\u00eene de carrosserie du pays, o\u00f9 le secteur ressemble encore \u00e0 une mosa\u00efque h\u00e9t\u00e9roclite. La Belgique compte entre six cents et huit cents ateliers de r\u00e9paration agr\u00e9\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

Moins de partenaires<\/h4>\n

Mais, \u00e0 l'instar des concessionnaires ind\u00e9pendants, une vague de regroupements prend de l'ampleur, le secteur devant faire face aux d\u00e9fis pos\u00e9s par un mod\u00e8le \u00e9conomique en pleine mutation. Cela implique de mettre davantage l'accent sur le num\u00e9rique et les v\u00e9hicules connect\u00e9s, tandis que le secteur de la location longue dur\u00e9e et des flottes \u00e9volue vers un nombre r\u00e9duit de partenaires, mais mieux inform\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

Cela rev\u00eat une importance croissante dans le contexte de l'\u00e9lectrification. Les v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques ne repr\u00e9sentent qu'environ 15% du parc automobile belge, mais ils constituent d\u00e9j\u00e0 pr\u00e8s de 60% des travaux de r\u00e9paration trait\u00e9s par AutoRepairGroup. Cela montre \u00e0 quel point ces r\u00e9seaux de r\u00e9paration sont \u00e9troitement li\u00e9s au secteur des v\u00e9hicules de soci\u00e9t\u00e9.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Mais les v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques modernes sont \u00e9quip\u00e9s d\u2019un plus grand nombre de capteurs, de cam\u00e9ras et de bo\u00eetiers de batterie int\u00e9gr\u00e9s \u00e0 la carrosserie, qui sont plus fragiles. Une rayure sur le pare-chocs d\u2019un v\u00e9hicule \u00e9lectrique n\u2019est plus seulement un probl\u00e8me esth\u00e9tique ; elle peut cacher de v\u00e9ritables cauchemars de recalibrage sous la surface. Tous les garages de quartier ne peuvent pas se permettre d\u2019acqu\u00e9rir les \u00e9quipements de diagnostic ou de suivre la formation \u00e0 la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 haute tension n\u00e9cessaires pour r\u00e9parer correctement un v\u00e9hicule \u00e9lectrique moderne.<\/p>\n

Roots chez Belron<\/h4>\n

Avec cette acquisition, le groupe finlandais Suvia s'implante pour la premi\u00e8re fois \u00e0 l'\u00e9tranger. Il n'est pas tr\u00e8s connu en Europe, mais dans son pays d'origine, il occupe une position dominante.<\/p>\n

Le groupe exploite plus de soixante-cinq ateliers de r\u00e9paration et pr\u00e8s de trente centres de contr\u00f4le technique, et emploie plus de six cents personnes. Il fournit \u00e9galement des pi\u00e8ces d\u00e9tach\u00e9es et r\u00e9alise des expertises de sinistres pour le compte des assureurs. La soci\u00e9t\u00e9 est d\u00e9tenue par la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 finlandaise de capital-investissement Intera Partners.<\/p>\n

Le groupe indique qu'il conservera le nom \u00ab AutoRepairGroup \u00bb ainsi que l'\u00e9quipe de direction actuelle, dirig\u00e9e par le directeur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral Dieter Wemel. Suvia rach\u00e8te la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e0 la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 de capital-investissement Standard Investment.<\/p>\n

Les origines d'AutoRepairGroup remontent toutefois \u00e0 Carglass, la marque de r\u00e9paration de pare-brise d\u00e9tenue par D\u2019Ieteren via Belron. Il y a cinq ans, Belron a estim\u00e9 que la carrosserie automobile ne correspondait plus \u00e0 son c\u0153ur de m\u00e9tier et a c\u00e9d\u00e9 cette division \u00e0 Standard Investment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Le propri\u00e9taire n\u00e9erlandais a consacr\u00e9 ces derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es \u00e0 la num\u00e9risation des processus et \u00e0 la rationalisation des op\u00e9rations. Il en tire aujourd\u2019hui les fruits, comme le font g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement les soci\u00e9t\u00e9s de capital-investissement au bout de quelques ann\u00e9es. Standard Investment qualifie cette op\u00e9ration de l\u2019une de ses plus importantes ventes \u00e0 ce jour, sans toutefois en d\u00e9voiler le montant.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
