GM selects Kroymans Corporation as sole HUMMER European distributor

General Motors selected Kroymans Corporation B.V. to develop and manage a European dealership network that will sell HUMMER products in the future. Kroymans Corporation is based in Hilversum, the Netherlands, and is already the European distributor of Cadillac and Corvette vehicles.

John Costin, President, GM Overseas Distribution Corporation, and Ton van Soest, CEO Kroymans Corporation, recently signed a letter of intent for a multi-year distribution agreement. This agreement gives Kroymans exclusive rights to import and distribute HUMMER vehicles into 27 European countries beginning late 2006.

Once a contract is signed, Kroymans Corporation plans to setup 50+ dealerships solely dedicated for marketing HUMMER products. This number includes 15 special HUMMER Centers to be based in the larger metropolitan areas.

A key product for HUMMER’s expansion in Europe and around the world will certainly be the all-new HUMMER H3. H3 just recently made its European debut at the Geneva Motor Show 2005. HUMMER H3 sales will begin in Europe in the second half of 2005.
