The AutoWallis Group is further bolstering its international position after reaching an agreement to become the exclusive distributor in 8 Central and Eastern European countries of the Farizon brand of commercial vehicles manufactured by Geely Auto Group. The AutoWallis Group has secured another important agreement, this time with the Zhejiang Geely Holding (Geely Auto) Group, for the exclusive distribution of Farizon commercial vehicles in 8 countries in the region (Austria, the Czech Republic, Croatia, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, and Slovenia, in addition to Hungary). In connection with the new brand, Andrew Prest, head of AutoWallis's Distribution Business Unit, said that distribution of the Farizon brand will start in the second half of 2024, starting with the V6E and SuperVan models.

In the 8 countries in which AutoWallis will sell the Farizon brand, 176,839 light commercial vehicles were registered in 2023, with the Polish market accounting for a third. Regarding this figure, he emphasized that the agreement has strategic importance as AutoWallis had so far only distributed parts in Poland: the current step will provide a base for the Group's presence in an important market where 576,850 new vehicles were sold in 2023.
