The introduction of this powerful workhorse followed in close succession to that of a unit delivered to Orapa Mine. Read on to get a glimpse of ESS and its business operations in Botswana and the established African footprint of its parent company, Kanu Equipment. Good afternoon Mr Paterson and welcome to Beneath Botswana.
Kanu is the largest supplier of Bell Equipment and Liebherr in Africa with distribution centres across the continent. Our operations in Southern Africa include Botswana and Zimbabwe. Supported by established relationships with original equipment manufacturers OEMs , ESS is well-positioned to offer the necessary back-up to respond timeously to customer needs. Our primary aim is to reduce the cost of operations for our customers by providing quality equipment backed by experienced maintenance teams with unrivalled spare parts availability.
We offer a wide range of products but our key brands are of course Bell and Liebherr. We are the dealer for both Bomag which is a world leader in the supply of road construction and compaction equipment as well as Case IH within the agriculture sector in Botswana. We are very excited about our replacement parts offering namely CTP, which are specialists in the supply of after-market spare parts for heavy mining equipment.
How viable is your product offering for the customer at a time when the mining pit is going deeper than expected? ESS is very fortunate to have a business partner in Debswana. We are also extremely excited to have ourmachines working on the new MTTP project on Letlhakane where we can further demonstrate the Support that we can give Debswana.
ESS has started from humble beginnings but has grown into a solid business over time. Offering a wide range of products and services, it is fortunate to have the technical and financial muscle to facilitate further growth and much needed on-the-ground infrastructure. Our technical teams are very experienced and many have been head hunted from the large mines across Africa and we are all driven by the vision to become the most Supportive Dealership in Botswana.
