Fahrzeugbedarf Kotz & Co. KG<\/h2><\/div>

Your leading expert for commercial vehicle parts and truck spare parts<\/h3><\/div>

Fahrzeugbedarf Kotz & Co KG<\/b> was founded in 1965 as a specialized sales company of the renowned BPW Bergische Achsenfabrik. Right from the start, we focused on the highest quality in the area of commercial vehicle parts<\/b> and chassis systems. Initially based in Josefst\u00e4dter Stra\u00dfe in Vienna, the company moved to Guntramsdorf in 1994 in order to meet the constantly growing demand.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div>

An important milestone was reached in 2000 with the founding of the vehicle parts subsidiary R.A.L. (formed from the companies REV, ALB and LAV). The goal was clearly defined: to create a nationwide distribution network for commercial vehicle parts<\/b> in Austria that would guarantee our customers the best availability at all times. Following the successful merger in 2016 to form today’s Fahrzeugbedarf Kotz & Co KG, we now successfully offer our expertise at five locations in Austria as well as other locations in Bosnia and Croatia. This makes us a strong, international BPW partner in Austria<\/b> and your first point of contact for professional vehicle requirements<\/b>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
