Silver Star has already indicated that it was not happy that Mercedes Benz has decided to terminate the contract it had after becoming a household name for being the local dealer for Mercedes-Benz for 25 years.
It accused Mercedes-Benz, Germany of making that move “without direct or indirect engagement, [and] decided to select a new dealer for Ghana opting instead to appoint a multinational company in Ghana that also will be their dealer in several other West African countries.”
We have tried our level best to make a case with Mercedes-Benz in Germany without luck, all appeals failed to have produce any response from them leaving us no choice but to seek redress from the courts,
