Volvo Penta has launched an Internet sales channel for end customers to purchase spare parts and accessories
The web shop, says Volvo Penta, makes it easy to find spare parts and accessories for Volvo Penta’s marine and industrial engines. Some 60,000 spare parts and accessories are available through the web shop.
The intention is that the web shop will increase availability for customers through intelligent functions and access to Volvo Penta’s databases and spare parts system.
The web shop contains exploded diagrams of engines and functionality that make it easy to find the parts that the customer is looking for. It is also possible to perform searches by engine family, engine type or part number. Such searchability is a great advantage for owners of Volvo Penta products.
“Purchasing via the web shop is easy for customers," said Håkan Wallin, head of Volvo Penta part sales in Europe and project manager for volvopentashop.com
"They can choose products, put them in the shopping cart, register as a customer and pay securely with a credit card. Thereafter, they can choose to either collect the items at the nearest dealer or have them delivered to their home address,”
The web shop is directly linked to Volvo Penta’s dealer network in Europe. This new service will initially be offered to five selected Volvo Penta Centers. In the near future, all 105 Volvo Penta Centers in Europe will be linked to the web shop.
