Bosch Car Service celebrates 100 years

Date: Thursday 18 February 2021

Max Eisenmann & Co, an automotive repair workshop in Hamburg, became the first official Robert Bosch AG installation and repair workshop in 1921, marking the birth of Bosch services and the first chapter in a global success story.

Company founder Robert Bosch recognized early on the necessity of a repair shop network.

As the number of car owners increased, so too did the demand for specialized expertise that extends beyond country borders and oceans.

Bosch Car Service is now the world’s largest brand-independent workshop network, with more than 15,000 companies in 150 countries.

As members of the global Bosch Car Service network, workshops receive support in the form of cutting-edge diagnostic technology, effective spare part logistics, and marketing measures.

Thanks to information and consulting services for all brands as well as state-of-the-art Bosch diagnostic technology, partners around the world benefit from Bosch’s ever-growing expertise.

Customers benefit from the high availability of Bosch original parts at partner workshops as well as qualified automotive mechatronic technicians, who are always up to date thanks to regular training courses.

“Networking, automation, and new drive solutions – vehicle complexity is growing steadily.
“More and more cars now feature driver assistance technologies and new display and infotainment systems,” says Thomas Winter, Head of Workshop Concepts at Bosch Automotive Aftermarket.
“This also means new challenges for workshops.
“Bosch is a reliable partner when it comes to accommodating the increasing requirements of the future – and can guarantee that, with Bosch Car Service workshops, car owners will always have a competent contact for services and repair.”
