So who's making Bosch filters now that that they've divested themselves of Purolator?
While I no proof, I suspect Bosch will continue to be made by Purolator at least in the short term, and perhaps in continuation. Before they jointly purchased Puro they were made by Champ. Really don't see a reason at this point for them switch from Puro, but time will tell. They may have had an agreement of some sort with M&H as part of the sale, but that's speculation on my part.
As for the sale, I thought the joint ownership of Puro was rather a unique situation so it's not a total surprise to have one buyout the other. As for what this means going forward, as with any aquistion, again time will tell. Mann says they are going to add jobs in NC in advertising and marketing, so if they follow through, that at least is a good thing.
