Agron supplies car parts every day to hundreds of garages in the province and the Euregion. Peter-Paul van Cleef continued in the footsteps of his father, who founded the company 65 years ago on the Geleen Groenstraat. There are now two branches, in Geleen and Heerlen. The team of 35 people delivers top logistics performance every day.

Agron has approximately 15,000 parts in stock, including 2,500 tires. Courses and training, garage concepts and formulas, websites, professional Kärcher machines... Agron delivers. Eight route drivers drive out every day to guarantee garages up to 6 delivery times per day. There is a coming and going in the stores at both locations. Van Cleef says: "Agron's mission is to help ensure that brand-independent and universal garage companies continue to have a well-stocked workshop with sufficiently trained staff and a healthy return, now and in the future. A reliable business partner and a 'One-stop-shop' for all free workshops. We have a strong commitment to brand-independent, universal garage companies. We strive for the availability and accessibility of car materials, tires, lubricants, workshop equipment, equipment and tools perfectly tailored to our customers. Our specialists offer this all professional advice and support. We offer extensive, technical workshop information online, so that customers have the same data as car dealers.”

Webshop

In addition, Agron, in collaboration with GMTO, offers a technical helpdesk for advice and support in the workshop. The owner adds: "We offer workshops, training and professional training courses at the training center in Heerlen. Technicians can be trained locally to become, for example, diagnostic experts and EV specialists. Receptionists and sales people also know where to find our training center for training on complaints management and sales techniques, for example." A boost for many car garages is the range of professional, but very accessible workshop concepts and formulas to support entrepreneurs. The comprehensive webshop is functioning at full speed. Already 40 percent of turnover comes through the website and even 90 percent of tire sales go online.
