Berwick Motor Group (BMG), a network of six automotive dealerships in South-Eastern Victoria, has been acquired by Autoleague, one of Australia’s largest privately owned automotive groups with 40+ franchises in Western Australia and Victoria.

Founded in 1997, BMG operates dealerships in Berwick and Hallam, providing motorists with new and used vehicles, parts, servicing, and aftermarket care as well as finance and insurance. BMG’s reputation and holistic service offering has helped it create long-standing partnerships with Kia, Nissan, Jeep, GWM, Haval and SsangYong.

BDO brought a cross-disciplinary approach to the transaction led by Tony Schiavello, Partner and National Leader of M&A, and Sam Venn, Partner Automotive, supported by Lachlan Cantwell and Richard Zhou who managed the successful transaction on behalf of BMG’s shareholders.

My experience with BDO has been nothing short of extraordinary. The successful transaction achieved for Berwick Motor Group is a testament to their unwavering dedication, strategic prowess, and sheer hard work. BDO’s ability to understand the nuances of my business and provide tailored advice has been instrumental in our success. They took the time to understand my needs and concerns, providing clear, concise, and practical advice at every turn. The process was seamless, with every detail meticulously planned and executed. The management team were outstanding, and their commitment and professionalism were clearly reflected in the outstanding result achieved. I am delighted with the outcome and cannot recommend Sam Venn, Tony Schiavello, and the BDO M&A team highly enough. I look forward to future collaborations and am confident that with their guidance, we will continue to achieve great success.
