Local firm in tie-up with Ambulanz

An Ambulanz Mobile vehicle customised by Bristol VMD

Bristol Vehicles Manufacturing Division (VMD), part of the Concorde-Corodex Group (CCG), has agreed a tie-up with the German ambulance manufacturer Ambulanz Mobile granting Bristol exclusive representation GCC-wide.

Bristol VMD, the Abu Dhabi-based rescue and safety vehicles manufacturer, has become the sole distributor for Ambulanz Mobile in the GCC. The agreement gives Bristol VMD the opportunity to customise Ambulanz Mobile vehicles according to specifications required by local emergency services including Abu Dhabi Police and Dubai Ambulance.

The partnership demonstrates Bristol VMD’s capacity to customise emergency vehicles at its 20,000 sq m assembly plant, testing facility and warehouse in Abu Dhabi. The vehicles will be assembled locally and fitted with medical equipment according to client demands.

Bristol VMD sold 35 Ambulanz Mobile vehicles to Abu Dhabi Police in 2015 and the company expects the new local customisation service to trigger a spike in sales throughout the GCC.

In addition to firefighting vehicles and ambulances, Bristol VMD also offers innovative Rapid Intervention Vehicles, Service Vehicles and Extendable Vehicles as well as service maintenance and refurbishment for all types of vehicles.

Bristol VMD plans to expand and supply international markets such as Africa and Central Asia in the coming year.
