Vulcain has acquired Volvo operations from the Corsin group, including the Volvo site in Chalon-sur-Saône, the Volvo and Land Rover concession in Mâcon, and the Volvo and Polestar concession in Bourg-en-Bresse. The Polestar sign at the Bourg-en-Bresse location has only been present for a few months. These three operations, grouped under the entity Mâcon Nord Automobiles, generated 17.95 million euros in revenue in 2025. The acquisition allows Vulcain, the 86th distributor group in the Top 100 2026, to develop in new departments and strengthen its position with the Swedish brand, having sold 480 Volvos in 2025 according to the manufacturer. This move follows an inverse operation in April 2026, when Vulcain sold its Volvo concession in Grenoble (38) to the Pautric group. The Grenoble concession had seven employees and a potential estimated up to 200 VN per year. With these new acquisitions, Vulcain becomes a single contact point for a range extending from Saint-Étienne (42) to Bourg-en-Bresse, passing through Lyon (69). Vulcain is also expanding its presence with Chinese brands. Since September 1, 2026, the group has joined the Chery network, with locations in Grenoble and Lyon (69), as well as the Omoda & Jaecoo network in Lyon. These new brands complement a portfolio already including Ford, Jaguar, Kia, Lynk & Co, Mazda, MG, Opel, and Suzuki. For the Corsin group, the sale of Volvo operations does not mean an exit from the automotive distribution. The operator retains its Ford concessions in Bourg-en-Bresse and Le Creusot (71), as well as its Ford-Ligier sites in Mâcon and Chalon-sur-Saône.
