A global automotive multi-brand distributor, Inchcape Motors Private Limited, partnered with local company PT Indomobil Sukses Internasional Tbk (IMAS) to take over the Mercedes-Benz assembly and sales business in Indonesia.

Mercedes-Benz AG has officially appointed the two companies to carry out the operational activities of PT Mercedes-Benz Indonesia and PT Mercedes-Benz Distribution Indonesia as an effort by the principals to optimize their business activities in the country.
