Busspart Group announces that the company this week has opened a new workshop in Holsted, strategically located between Kolding and Esbjerg in Denmark—right next to the E20 motorway.

The new facility represents an important step in Busspart’s continued expansion in the Nordic region. The site includes a workshop, office facilities, apartments for employees and guests, as well as an extensive 8,000 m² parking area designed for buses.

“This is a new milestone for us in Denmark. With this establishment, we significantly strengthen our capacity and move even closer to our customers and partners,” says Mikael Strøyer, CEO of Busspart Denmark. “In the long term, we aim to establish both a mechanical workshop, as well as a bodywork department and paint shop. In the first phase, the facility will be used to carry out PDI (Pre-Delivery Inspection) on approximately 300 new BYD buses. This work marks the beginning of significant operational activity at the new workshop.”

Workshop Manager Kenneth Kolbeck will be responsible for daily operations and looks forward to further developing the facility:

“We now have facilities in place that provide excellent conditions for efficient operations and high-quality work. This will become an important hub going forward.”

Group CEO Bjørn Arild Martinsen and Chairman of the Board Dag Henrik Bergby were also present at the opening, together with key partners. Around the table, representatives from BYD’s management, operator Umove, and Busspart leadership gathered to mark the launch and discuss future cooperation.

The new facility in Holsted is part of Busspart Group’s long-term strategy for growth and strengthened presence in the Nordic region and across Europe.

Busspart Norge AS Continues Its Growth – Acquires Sister Companies in Sweden and Denmark

After several years of continuous growth and expansion, Busspart Norge AS continues its strong development. During 2025, the company has taken another major step in its Nordic expansion through the acquisition of its sister companies, Busspart Sverige AB and Busspart Danmark ApS. These acquisitions mark an important milestone in the company’s history and make Busspart a unified Scandinavian player within bus parts, service, body & paint repair, and installation.

“This is a natural and strategic next step for us,” says Group CEO Bjørn Arild Martinsen.

“We have worked closely with Sweden since the very beginning, and through a joint initiative we established operations in Denmark in 2023. By bringing the businesses together, we gain an even clearer position as a total supplier to the bus industry across Scandinavia,” he continues.

Busspart – Stronger Together

The acquisition of the Swedish and Danish companies is part of Busspart Norway’s long-term growth strategy. With established workshops, PDI operations, as well as paint and body services in several countries, the group now gains a unified structure and management that supports its goals of increased efficiency, better coordination, and shorter delivery times. To maintain strong local presence, the company structure in each country will remain unchanged.

Busspart Denmark, established in 2023, has already achieved significant success with its workshop in Roskilde, which currently handles both PDI for new buses and bodywork. Busspart Sweden, on the other hand, has for many years been a key yet independent partner for the Swedish public transport industry and has built a strong reputation for reliability, quality, and competitive pricing.

“By now bringing our resources together across borders, we become stronger and are able to deliver the same high-quality services whether the customer is located in Oslo, Stockholm, or Copenhagen,” says Martinsen.

A Shared Nordic Structure

As part of the integration process, a new joint Nordic central warehouse is being considered. This facility is intended to contribute to more efficient logistics and shorter delivery times for parts across all companies within the group.

“We see great potential in coordinating our purchasing and logistics across companies and national borders,” Martinsen continues. “The goal is to reduce our environmental footprint while maintaining the high standards our customers expect. Sustainability and quality must go hand in hand in everything we do.”

A Strengthened Group – New Opportunities

With Busspart Service AS and Metrotek AS already well-established companies in Norway, the Busspart Group now stands on a solid foundation for further growth. These businesses open new market opportunities within both information systems and safety solutions for public transport, and there is a growing demand for independent service providers in the industry.

“Throughout 2025, we have seen how important it is to remain flexible and service-oriented,” says Martinsen. “With a strong team and a comprehensive service offering, we are very well positioned to meet the needs of the bus market—both today and in the future. We will continue to grow and solve our customers’ challenges going forward, but now in more countries.”

The Road Ahead

Busspart Norge AS now enters 2026 with strong ambitions. With a shared Nordic structure, increased capacity, and a clear focus on sustainability and service, the group aims to strengthen its position as the leading provider of bus parts and related services in the Nordic region.

“We started in 2016 with a simple vision—to deliver quality parts to the bus industry,” Martinsen concludes. “Ten years later, we expect revenues of close to NOK 400 million. Nine years on, we have grown into a Nordic group with operations in three countries. We are proud of that—but this is only the beginning.”
