BANGKOK (MarketWatch) — The Thai unit of Royal Dutch Shell PCL said Monday it has agreed to sell its “Autoserv” car maintenance chain in Thailand and Malaysia to units of Bridgestone Corp. (5108.TO).
The agreement covers 64 outlets in Thailand and eight outlets in Malaysia, The Shell Co. of Thailand Ltd. said in a statement.
Financial terms of the deal weren’t disclosed. The Autoserv business provides car maintenance services including tire and lubricant sales.
“This divestment has no impact on Shell’s other businesses in the country. The company remains a major investor in Thailand’s oil industry,” said Shell Thailand Chief Executive Surasak Kosadat.
The Thai outlets were sold to Bridgestone Corp. Holdings Thailand and the Malaysia outlets were sold to Bridgestone Tyre Sales (Malaysia) Bhd.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group.

The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
