For Shumani Industrial Equipment it is important to provide capital equipment on short-term and even long-term rental agreements.
As the official distributor of Kalmar reach stackers and empty-container handlers in South Africa, Shumani hopes that the reach stackers in the fleet will allow port equipment to thrive.
The Kalmar Essential reach stacker is built on the proven G-Generation platform These machines are reliable, robust, highly efficient and are available with either EU3/Tier 3, EU4/ Tier 4F or EU5 or Korea Stage V emissions standards compliant engines.
Kalmar equipment is available for outright purchase or short-term rental at affordable rates.
“Most companies that require this equipment either do not have the capital outlay to purchase outright, or do not want to put it on their balance sheet,” explains Victor Nemukula, MD at Shumani Industrial Equipment.
“We are the only 51% black-owned, Level 1 BBB-EE in the country that can offer forklifts and warehouse equipment, construction equipment and cleaning equipment on both outright purchase, long- and short-term rental in South Africa,” comments Nemukula.
Over the past eight years, Shumani has built up its in-house technical capabilities to provide services around the country. It strives to offer its customers 24/7 service and a two-hour response time in major metropolitan areas for all its equipment.
The port and warehousing market continue to lead the way in terms of growth. “We are already seeing robust growth going into 2023 in these two market sectors,” reveals Nemukula.
“New products will be announced this year once the necessary logistics have been finalised,” he concludes.
