BharatBenz Strengthens West Bengal Network with New Howrah Dealerships

Daimler India Commercial Vehicles (DICV) has expanded BharatBenz’s presence in West Bengal by inaugurating a new dealership in Uluberia, Howrah.

Operated by Agile Trucking, the new facility is strategically located on NH-16 and will cater to commercial vehicle customers across major industrial and logistics hubs, including Ranihati, Dhulagarh, Sankrail, Bagnan, Kolaghat, Haldia and Kharagpur.

A 16-bay 3S facility

The new dealership spans 100,000 sq. ft. and operates as a 3S facility, offering sales, service and spares under one roof.

It includes:

  • 12 service bays
  • 4 accident repair bays
  • 3 Mobile Reach Vans for on-road assistance
  • A team of 50 trained personnel
  • Capacity to service over 500 vehicles per month
  • Extended operating hours from 6 AM to 10 PM

The facility is expected to support fleet operators involved in logistics, FMCG, courier services, regional freight movement and, captive operations.

BharatBenz expands its footprint

Agile Trucking joined the BharatBenz network in July 2022 and is part of the CKA Birla Group’s Integrated Mining & Manufacturing Solutions business.

With dealerships already operating in Bardhaman, Haldia and Raniganj, the new Howrah facility becomes Agile Trucking’s fourth touchpoint across South Bengal.

BharatBenz now has 14 touchpoints across West Bengal, while its wider Indian network includes more than 430 service workshops and touchpoints.

DICV also plans to establish a dedicated Parts Logistics Centre for Eastern India, which is expected to improve parts availability and reduce delivery lead times.

Final Take

This is less about adding another showroom and more about improving uptime for commercial vehicle operators. With its location along NH-16, extended service hours and dedicated accident repair bays, the new BharatBenz facility strengthens the brand’s support network in one of eastern India’s important freight corridors.
