Giving new life to cars.
Caréco Molins Creauto is a well-established company, leader in Hauts de France, and specialising in the field of reused vehicle parts, the sale of second-hand vehicles and the resale of new parts. Molins has a long and distinguished history in the French automotive industry, dating back to its founding in 1943 by Michel Molins. Over the decades, under the leadership of Jean-Luc Molins, the company has grown into a key player in the sector and has led the way in many areas such as the establishment of Careco Group* in France. In 2017, Manon Molins, the fourth generation of the family, joined the company. Together with Jean-Luc, they took the lead in building up a state-of-the-art dismantling and recycling facility, a recognized team of industry experts as well as a strategy aimed at future growth.
