2000 Expansion

The new millennium began with an acceleration in the Group’s plans for growth and geographical and product diversification:
- In 2000, Gonvarri opens a second GONVAUTO dedicated to VW, in NAVARRA. In 2001, the opening of the second plant in Campinas BRAZIL strengthens Gonvarri’s presence in South America and consolidates their leadership in this market.

-In 2002, a new Centre is set up in the PORT OF TARRAGONA which not only allows the Group to optimise its internal logistics, but also allows the Group to venture into a new business area of providing logistics services to third-party companies.

In 2004, in close collaboration with Gestamp, a new service centre is opened in Poland primarily dedicated to servicing the needs of Gestamp and VW Poland. That same year, and after the positive experience with the Port of Tarragona plant, a new Centre is set up in the PORT OF MARÍN (Galicia) that combines logistical advantages with dedication to the automotive sector, as it is located near the PSA Group's plant in Vigo.
