We at DERUNA are thrilled to share the recent successful visit from our valued partners, a leading construction company based in Uganda. This visit underscores the growing trust in HOWO trucks and the critical need for reliable Howo Parts Uganda-wide. The delegation’s key objectives were to finalize the purchase of new SINOTRUK HOWO 371 trucks and to establish a robust, long-term framework for supplying genuine Howo Parts Uganda for their existing HOWO fleet. This engagement highlights our commitment not just as suppliers, but as strategic partners in bolstering Uganda's construction and logistics sectors.
The construction industry in Uganda is experiencing significant growth, demanding robust and dependable machinery. Heavy-duty trucks like the SINOTRUK HOWO are the backbone of this development, transporting materials across challenging terrains. Recognizing this, our partners embarked on a journey to DERUNA’s headquarters to reinforce our collaboration.
Their visit was focused on two primary goals: expanding their fleet with new, powerful HOWO 371 vehicles and ensuring the long-term operational efficiency of their current trucks through a seamless supply of high-quality parts, precisely the assurance provided by Howo Parts Uganda, for minimal downtime on critical projects.
This face-to-face meeting was an invaluable opportunity to deepen our understanding of their specific operational challenges and triumphs. It allowed us to demonstrate our extensive inventory, our technical expertise, and our unwavering dedication, through initiatives like Howo Parts Uganda, to supporting their success every step of the way.
The centerpiece of our discussion was the acquisition of new SINOTRUK HOWO 371 trucks. Our clients, having built their operations on the durability and power of the HOWO brand, specifically emphasized the critical need for a dependable supply of genuine components, a cornerstone of the Howo Parts Uganda commitment. This makes HOWO their vehicle of choice for demanding construction tasks. The HOWO 371 model, known for its exceptional torque, rugged chassis, and superior load-bearing capacity, is perfectly suited for heavy hauling in the varied Ugandan landscape, and its uptime is guaranteed by the support of Howo Parts Uganda.
During detailed technical sessions, our engineering team worked closely with the clients to tailor the configuration of these new trucks to their exact project requirements. These conversations also laid the groundwork for a seamless after-sales experience, ensuring that the specific parts and support needed for these customized vehicles will be readily available through the Howo Parts Uganda network. Precise configuration details are crucial for maximizing productivity and ensuring operator comfort and safety.

A significant portion of the visit was dedicated to reviewing the performance of our client’s existing HOWO truck fleet. We were immensely proud to receive overwhelmingly positive feedback. The company’s management and drivers reported exceptional satisfaction with the trucks’ performance, highlighting several key strengths:
Unmatched Reliability and Durability: The trucks have consistently performed under strenuous conditions, from rough quarry sites to long-haul road transport. Their robust construction minimizes breakdowns, ensuring projects stay on schedule.
High Cost-Effectiveness: The clients emphasized the low total cost of ownership. The combination of affordable initial investment, excellent fuel economy for their class, and readily available Howo parts Uganda-wide through DERUNA has resulted in significant long-term savings.
Powerful Performance: The engines provide ample power for climbing hills and carrying heavy loads, which is critical for construction and logistics companies working across Uganda.
Driver Comfort and Safety: The spacious and well-designed cabins reduce driver fatigue on long journeys, contributing to safer operation. Features like powerful braking systems and excellent visibility were also commended.
This positive user experience is the strongest testament to the HOWO brand’s quality. It validates our client’s decision to reinvest in the brand and expands their fleet with more HOWO vehicles.
Beyond the new vehicle purchase, the core of the visit was to formulate a comprehensive and strategic plan for Howo parts Uganda supply chain. The client’s primary need is to eliminate downtime caused by waiting for spare parts. We discussed moving from a reactive parts-ordering model to a proactive, scheduled supply agreement.
DERUNA proposed a tailored partnership program that includes:
Guaranteed Inventory: Dedicated shelf space in our warehouse for the most common and critical parts specific to their fleet.
Scheduled Shipments: Regular, planned shipments of parts to Uganda, ensuring a consistent inventory flow without them needing to monitor stock levels constantly.
Emergency Support: A prioritized 24/7 support channel for emergency part requests, with expedited shipping options to address critical breakdowns immediately.
Technical Data Sharing: Sharing fleet maintenance data to help predict parts demand more accurately and plan for major overhauls.
This strategic shift ensures their fleet remains operational, maximizes productivity, and secures their investment in HOWO trucks for years to come.
Leveraging our deep knowledge of the HOWO brand and our experience supplying Howo parts Uganda-wide, we provided our client with a curated list of recommended spare parts to stock. These recommendations are based on their specific truck models, local terrain, climate, and common wear-and-tear patterns.
The engine is the heart of the truck. Uganda’s dusty conditions and often hot climate put extra stress on this system. We highly recommend maintaining a stock of:
Air Filters: Crucial for protecting the engine from abrasive dust. We recommend genuine HOWO air filters for perfect fitment and maximum filtration efficiency.
Oil Filters and Fuel Filters: Regular changes with high-quality filters are the cheapest insurance for a long engine life.
Radiator and Cooling Hoses: To prevent overheating, especially during heavy load hauling in high temperatures.
Turbocharger Components: HOWO trucks rely on turbocharged power; having key components or a exchange unit can prevent lengthy downtime.
The rugged Ugandan roads are tough on the chassis and drivetrain. Key parts to include in any Howo parts Uganda inventory are:
Clutch Kits: A common wear item, especially for vehicles frequently starting with heavy loads.
Suspension Components: Leaf springs, shock absorbers, and bushings wear out faster on uneven terrain.
King Pins and Bushings: Essential for front axle integrity and steering precision, critical for safety.
Differential and Transmission Gears/Oils: Having specific lubricants and common gear parts ensures proper maintenance of the drivetrain.
Starter Motors and Alternators: Electrical failures can strand a truck. These are high-priority spare items.
Lighting Kits: Headlamps, tail lights, and indicators are vital for safety and are susceptible to damage.
Cabin Filters and Air Conditioning Parts: For driver comfort and retention, especially in hot climates.
Safety is paramount. A reliable supply of braking system components is non-negotiable.
Air Compressor: The heart of the air brake system.
Brake Pads and Shoes: Regular wear items that must be replaced frequently.
Brake Valves and Air Dryers: Essential for maintaining clean, dry air for the brake system, preventing corrosion and failure.
By stocking these strategic Howo parts Uganda, our client can perform routine maintenance promptly and address most common repairs immediately, keeping their fleet on the road and generating revenue.
The visit from our Ugandan partners was immensely productive and reinforces a shared vision for growth and reliability. The order for the new HOWO 371 trucks, configured to their precise needs, will bring even more power and efficiency to their projects. The discussions around a solidified Howo Parts Uganda supply chain mark the evolution of our relationship from a simple vendor-client dynamic to a true long-term partnership.
