About Wolk & Nikolic
The data and vertical intelligence specialists for the automotive aftermarket
Since 1994 we have worked in one vertical only — turning proprietary market data into confident decisions for every stakeholder in the global automotive aftermarket.
Our story
A neutral specialist, focused on the aftermarket since 1994
Wolk & Nikolic Aftersales Intelligence GmbH is the neutral data and vertical intelligence specialist for the global automotive aftermarket. We work exclusively in this vertical — sourcing, structuring and interpreting market data so manufacturers, buying groups, distributors, intermediaries, mobility providers and workshops can make confident, future-oriented decisions.
Our foundation is proprietary market research and the After Sales ACCESS database, which maps the passenger-car parts trading structures of all 35 European countries. We combine that data with decades of category understanding to deliver clarity where others offer opinion.
In 2025 we acquired BBE Automotive, strengthening our position as the leading independent source of market intelligence and implementation support in the automotive aftermarket. As a neutral partner to every stakeholder in the value chain, we translate research into results.
