How a new Transport client stopped paying “New Truck Part prices”
One of our valued transport clients recently discovered something suprising..
Apparently parts don’t have to be brand new to work perfectly. Who knew??
Instead of ordering expensive new components everytime something failed they tried quality second hand truck parts from us…
The Result
Trucks fixed faster, Huge savings compared to new and a maintenance budget that finally stopped having panic attacks..
The moral of the story?
Before you order a brand new part and shock your accountant, give us. A call first..
Your truck will move
Your wallet will recover
And your accountant might even finally sleep through the night..
A Story of how we ended up Importing Chinese Truck Parts(By accident…Sort of) and not only European Brands..
It all started when some of our valued clients kept telling us the same thing;
“We love our FAW, Sinotruk, and Powerstar trucks but finding quality second hand parts is like trying to find a clean workshop floor…Impossible “except ours of course..!! LOL
We took the Hint.
So we grabbed our passports, packed some biltong, and set off on a mission to hunt down quality second -hand parts…Picture us looking at engines like we were choosing meat at a butchery..Prodding., poking, touching things that should not be touched.
“Too tired…A bit juicy…Oh yes these ones are fresh, perfect!!”
We found trusted suppliers, inspected every engine and gear-box like it owed us money and were blessed by the mechanical gods, ensuring that they could survive tough African conditions.Then we packed everything like Tetris masters and shipped them home, legally of course..(We promise)…
When the first container arrived we cheered the start of a new adventure and all because we listened, we cared and refused to let good trucks potentially stand, bearing in mind time is money..
And honestly?
We cannot wait to bring in the next batch of containers, this adventure is way too much fun and satisfying customers all too fulfilling.
