HELSINKI, July 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Kamux's German subsidiary, Kamux Auto GmbH has decided to initiate legal proceedings against local procurement partner.

Kamux Auto GmbH demands refund of payments related to purchasing agreements made to the procurement partner totaling approximately EUR 3.7 million.
