Ayvens “paves way for tomorrow”

ALD Automotive I LeasePlan presents in Greece Ayvens, the new global mobility brand, which is the union of the two companies under a single identity. This move comes after the merger of the two leading companies on the world map of the automotive industry in May 2023. The main shareholder of the company is the French financial organization, Societe Generale.

The company’s footprint in Greece is already particularly important. The 12% of total new car registrations, are made today by Ayvens. It has approximately 60,000 vehicles on Greek roads, with a value of over 1.1 billion euros, proving her ability to finance and manage a huge fleet. At the same time, the company currently employs over 270 employees.

Ayvens is leading the transition to zero-emission mobility and shaping the industry’s digital transformation. With a central message of “Better with every move”, it is committed to the continuous improvement of its services, aiming to make life “flow better”.

Creation of the largest Mobility Center in Greece

Ayvens is making another important investment in our country, creating the largest Mobility Center in Greece, in Magoula Attica. This state-of-the-art facility, spread over 60 acres, acts as a hub for various services, which include a new experience of car pickup and delivery, replacement and return. By combining the resources and expertise of the two merged companies, Ayvens aims to provide innovative and effective solutions to meet the diverse needs of its clients in Greece.

Fleet value over 1.1 billion euros

Having exceeded €1.1 billion in vehicle value on Greek roads, Ayvens manages and maintains a significant fleet with an average vehicle age of 2.5 years. This is an investment that not only proves Ayvens’ confidence in the Greek market, but also contributes significantly to the local economy, supporting the import companies established in Greece and their dealer network, maintaining and repairing its cars in this network.

Ayvens Carmarket: Revolutionizing the Used Car Market

Another important pillar of Ayvens’ activity in Greece is the used car market. With the launch of the new platform, Ayvens Carmarket, the company aims to completely reshape the domestic perception of this sector. The platform offers a wide range of services for the wholesale sale of used vehicles, designed specifically for car professionals and dealers. Through an integrated sales management system, it facilitates digital processes and cross-border transactions.
Ayvens is also active in retail and direct sales to individuals.
