STOCKHOLM, Sweden--The markets in Eastern Europe have been growing rapidly for the Volvo Group (NASDAQ:VOLV) (STO:VOLVA) (STO:VOLVB) (Brussels:VLV) and sales in the region increased by nearly 40 percent during 2006. To further strengthen the position in Eastern Europe and meet increased transport and infrastructure needs, Volvo Group is continuing to invest in the region. Tomorrow, Friday May 11, Volvo Group is opening a new Volvo Center in Mlochw, Poland. The multifunctional center will cover different Volvo activities operated by Volvo Trucks, Volvo Construction Equipment, Volvo Buses and Volvo Financial Services.
Throughout Europe there is an intensifying need for transport solutions and building of new infrastructure, particularly between east and west, resulting in increased demand for heavy trucks, construction equipment and buses.

The new Volvo Center will serve as a model multifunctional service station, which will help implement Volvo's standards in factory-owned and independent authorized service stations in Eastern Europe.
