GP Automotive, the aftermarket warehouse distributor, has acquired the Veco brand from Vegem International.

As part of the agreement, GP has acquired the assets and stock of the Veco brand and is currently transferring product from Veco’s home in Leeds to its distribution facility in Kidderminster.

The products involved are: braking, steering and suspension, clutches, water pumps, cables, wheel bearings and hoses.

GP has written to existing Veco customers notifying them of the change of ownership and GP managing director Graham Trevitt has promised to “maintain and develop the Veco brand and product portfolios and greatly improve product availability through significant investment in additional stocks, particularly of fast moving/popular items”.
