DaimlerChrysler, the manufacturer of Mercedes Benz, has recently changed its global structure. Earlier, Rancon Motors Limited, a sister concern of Rangs Group and the general distributor of Mercedes Benz in Bangladesh, along with all distributors of South East Asia were controlled by DC India. From now on, as a part of global restructuring Bangladesh along with all other distributors of Mercedez Benz of South East Asia will be controlled and monitored by DC Singapore.
