SHACMAN Trucks Empower Southeast African Logistics: A Success Story​

In the bustling world of African transportation, the challenges faced by logistics companies are both numerous and complex. Gade, the regional manager of a prominent African transportation enterprise, was acutely aware of these hurdles, especially when it came to long-haul container transportation across Southeast Africa.​

Initially, like many local operators, Gade’s company relied on second – hand European trucks. However, it wasn’t long before the drawbacks became glaringly obvious. Aging parts led to frequent breakdowns, and the high fuel consumption was a significant drain on resources. What’s more, during cross – border journeys, the vehicles would often malfunction on foreign highways, with sparse service stations and slow rescue times, severely disrupting business operations.​

Determined to find a solution, Gade decided to invest in a new fleet of heavy – duty trucks. This decision caught the attention of the SHACMAN team, who promptly paid Gade a visit. They presented him with customized vehicle configurations and real – life case pictures from similar working conditions in other regions. SHACMAN was no stranger to Gade, as he was already familiar with their impressive 3000 – square – meter spare parts center in the southeastern inland of Africa. The professionalism and efficiency of the SHACMAN team left an indelible mark on Gade.​

Shortly after, 52 SHACMAN X3000 tractors were introduced into Gade’s company. To guarantee the seamless operation of these vehicles, SHACMAN dispatched service engineers for follow – up visits. The results were remarkable. As fleet manager Shangu noted, “The vehicles have been extremely reliable, and SHACMAN’s service is truly comprehensive. With service stations all along the transport route, we no longer worry about breakdowns and long waits for rescue, no matter which country we’re in.”​

SHACMAN is committed to further enhancing its presence in Southeast Africa. Currently, they have 35 service stations and 30 parts outlets along the logistics route in the region. This extensive network provides unwavering support for over 10,000 kilometers of cross – border logistics transportation. As SHACMAN continues to expand its after – sales service network, it is set to play an even more crucial role in empowering the logistics and transportation industry in Southeast Africa, offering reliable vehicles and top – notch service to ensure smooth operations for companies like Gade’s.
