Sew-Eurodrive, geared motor specialist, has expanded its presence in Africa.

The company has expanded and upgraded its facility in Aeroton, near Johannesburg, with plans to offer more support throughout Africa. “This year, we are setting up additional resources in Botswana, Eswatini and Mozambique,” says Tebogo Moloi, Head of Business Development in Africa. Sew-Eurodrive already operates in South Africa, Zambia, Kenya, Tanzania, and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

Local representatives are available to support customers with site visits and specialised training, Moloi says. “From our in-country bases, we are closer to customer sites and can deliver high-value technical support.”

“Given the large installed base of geared motors and industrial fear (IG) units in Africa, we can now also service and repair competitor products by leveraging our growing technical capability around the continent,” says Jonathan McKey, National Sales and Marketing Manager. “We also conduct energy audits, and advise on our energy efficient solutions to reduce costs and carbon footprints,” he says.
