Motor retailing venture revs up with £5m injection
Glasgow-headquartered Maven is pumping the money into Rockar alongside fellow investment outfit NVM Private Equity.
The cash injection will enable Rockar – founded in 2012 – to partner with more major car manufacturers, following its initial success with Hyundai, launch further digital stores in shopping centres and continue to develop its technology platform.
