Because the truck order includes at least five thousand trucks, maintenance in the future will also be quite troublesome.
Therefore, Benz and the Russian side agreed that Benz Automobile Factory would build at least three car repair factories in Russia. Russia would be responsible for funding, Benz Automobile Factory would be responsible for providing technology, and Benz would own 40 percent of the shares.
In this way, Russian trucks can be repaired domestically when problems arise, not only greatly shortening the time needed for truck maintenance but also improving the efficiency of truck maintenance.
For Russia, the maintenance factories they build themselves can also save some maintenance costs. In short, anything that saves money is welcomed by the Russian government.
To celebrate the completion of both parties' orders, Benz held a celebratory banquet on behalf of the car factory and gave a small gift to all members of the Russian diplomatic team.
