                                                            Reeds Bellville already has Opel facilities in the group. The expansion will bolster dealer representation across the Western Cape in support of Stellantis’s ambitious expansion plans.
The dealer representation in the Western Cape now ensures that customers have easy access to dealerships, providing a convenient sales and aftersales experience to most customers. The standards of those facilities are tightly managed to provide the best possible customer experience.

The Reeds Motor Group originated in the Cape Town business centre in 1910. Brothers Alfred and Arthur Reed continued the expansion, and the family business ultimately became part of a larger group, currently owned by the CFAO Group.
“We are always pleased to broaden relationships with existing dealers in our network,” says Leslie Ramsoomar, Managing Director of Stellantis South Africa. “Reeds Bellville is firmly entrenched in our approach to customers and has enviable success in supporting our constant drive for improved customer satisfaction.”
Leading the team at Reeds Bellville is Dealer Manager, Jacques Rudman. “For over a century, we’ve been bringing the best car experience to Cape Town,” says Rudman. “We’re excited to add Fiat, Fiat Professional and Jeep to our arsenal of fantastic brands.”

Reeds Bellville is complemented by outlets in Claremont and N1 City and is committed to providing the best automotive solutions in the area.
