KVM and FOTON
Foton Motors is a leading manufacturer of commercial
vehicles in China. KVM now collaborates with Foton Motors in assembling the Foton
Sup Double Cab pick-up. These pick-ups are especially built to suit any tough Kenyan
road. The Foton Sup Double Cab pick-up is known for its reliability, durability,
low maintenance cost and fuel efficiency.

Trailer assembly for DHL
KVM is again building Semi Trailers.This time we are working with DHL to re-build trailers which are at their life end in Europe, while they still have a full life span here in Africa! We are using our CKD Semi Trailer skills to production line the process of having these ready for the roads of Kenya.
These
trailers use a modern tyre and rim which is wider than our Kenyan
counterparts, with only one wheel being needed per side, as opposed to
the norm here which is two per side. It will be interesting to see how
they bear up under local terrain and conditions.
We
believe that this contract both supplies DHL with a well formed
product, and at the same time employs Kenyans in at least part of the
development of the product.
