Services will start at Wetteri's Pori location in early 2026. Following the acquisition, Wetteri will offer BMW-authorised service and repair at its locations in Pori, Oulu, Kajaani, Kemi, Rovaniemi and Mikkeli. BMW sales will continue in Oulu and Rovaniemi.
"Our goal is to increase our market share in brand representations that are both interesting and profitable in terms of volume.
