Stellantis announces the expansion of its multi-franchise dealer network with the introduction of FIAT and Jeep® brands at the Westvaal Nelspruit facility in Mpumalanga.
This expansion strengthens its commitment to making these iconic brands more accessible to customers, offering a seamless and convenient experience, says the manufacturer.
Westvaal Nelspruit, already home to Opel, Peugeot and Citroën, continues to grow its offerings, enhancing Stellantis’s presence in the region. The dealership’s addition of FIAT and Jeep® underlines the dealer growth in the region and reflects Stellantis's position as one of the largest importers in the South African motor industry.
“We’re excited to be expanding our relationship with the Westvaal Motor Group. This partnership not only broadens our reach but also enhances our ability to offer exceptional service to our customers,” says Mike Whitfield, Managing Director of Stellantis South Africa. “By bringing FIAT and Jeep® closer to our customers in Mpumalanga, we are making these outstanding brands and their products more accessible.”
Leading the Nelspruit team is Dealer Manager L-J Pretorius, who expressed gratitude for the continued support of the local community. “We thank Stellantis for entrusting us with two more of their brands. Our team is dedicated to upholding the high standards of customer care and service that our customers expect,” says L-J.
With outlets in Nelspruit, Paarl, Polokwane, Menlyn and Secunda, the Westvaal Motor Group remains committed to providing the best automotive solutions to local communities.

Whether you are an owner or your dealership is owned by a corporate, it always has a value. In broad terms, this value is made up of two parts. The first is the net asset value of the dealership and the second is the goodwill of the dealership. It is on this basis that most motor dealerships are bought or sold.
