Scheidt & Bachmann proudly announces that Schmit Parkeersystemen B.V., based in Zoetermeer, Netherlands, joins the Scheidt & Bachmann family as a 100% subsidiary retroactive to January 1, 2015. Schmit Parkeersystemen was a longtime distributor of S&B GmbH equipment and based on their successful partnership, both management boards decided this was a natural progression.
The company will be maintained as an independent organization under the name Scheidt & Bachmann Parkeersystemen B.V. and will continue to offer its renown On and Off Street product and service portfolio. The team will remain a highly competent contact for the Netherlands.
“Our team has worked closely and successfully with S&B for many years. We are now happy to be considered as a subsidiary offered by a system solution supplier / integrator like S&B, which gives us direct access to research & development as well as a manufacturing”, states Pieter Bakker, Managing Director of Schmit Parkeersystemen B.V., looking into the future.
“We are happy to embrace the Schmit Parkeersystemen team within our international Scheidt & Bachmann family”, says Martin Kammler, Managing Director of Scheidt & Bachmann. “This decision provides us with the opportunity to get closer to a highly innovative and technology-leading market as the Netherlands, also enabling us to offer even better solutions to our global operating key accounts. We expect to benefit from the high level of innovation and flexibility of the Schmit team and trust to keep the successful organization and management team.”
The new subsidiary will continue to offer the On-Street Parking products of Cale from Sweden. “Our strong business relationship with Schmit Parkeersystemen and collaboration with Scheidt & Bachmann will in this constellation ensure new opportunities for Cale”, says Anton Kaya, Managing Director of Cale Access AB, Sweden.
