Paris, France, 18 April 2024
izmocars, the leading provider of digital solutions for the automotive sector, is proud to announce a new strategic partnership with the European Peugeot Dealers Association (AECP). This partnership illustrates izmocars’ continued commitment to supporting Peugeot dealers, extending its impact in Europe after a recent strategic agreement in France with the GCAP (Groupement des Concessionaires Automobiles Peugeot) via the Perform’HA platform.
Since its creation in 1989, the AECP has played a key role in facilitating coordination between Peugeot dealers in Europe and supporting their material and moral interests. In partnership with izmocars, the AECP aims to increase the efficiency and profitability of its members through a comprehensive suite of digital tools and training tailored to the challenges of today’s market.
“This collaboration with izmocars represents a major step forward for the AECP, allowing us to provide our members with the best tools and strategies to tackle an ever-changing European automotive market.” declared André Figueiredo, President of the AECP.
This partnership reinforces izmocars’ position as a key partner in the digitalization of Peugeot’s sales and service network in Europe, integrating advanced technologies and innovative digital marketing strategies. Indeed, izmocars, with more than 20 years of experience in tailor-made digital solutions, is redefining the landscape of Peugeot dealerships in Europe thanks to this partnership with the AECP.
By optimizing their digital performance, izmocars already provides more than 600 dealers in France with a significant competitive advantage in the market. The legacy product, izmoAuto, maximizes online lead generation through a mobile-optimized platform and advanced SEO strategy. Distrigo Boost, the specialized CRM for Distrigo spare parts platforms, increases the productivity of the sales force and improves customer management. IzmoConsulting, a subsidiary Qualiopi certified training organization of izmo France, offers essential training to master new technologies and already supports subsidiaries and private dealerships of the Stellantis network thanks to its flagship C1ST training, while Marketing Factory propels sales with integrated and impactful marketing campaigns.
The signing of this two-year partnership took place on 28 March in Paris, marking the beginning of a promising collaboration that was initiated during the last AECP convention in Vienna, where the first exchanges between the two entities revealed significant potential for joint development.
Tej Soni, President of izmocars, commented: “We are delighted with this new step with the AECP. This partnership is proof of our dedication to providing innovative solutions that meet the contemporary challenges of Peugeot dealerships. Together, we will redefine the automotive experience in Europe and bring significant added value to our customers.”
