In a significant step towards strengthening international partnerships and expanding our footprint in the African market, DERUNA was recently honored to host a distinguished delegation from Zimbabwe—a leading intermediary for Zimbabwe Howo Trucks and parts. This visit underscores the growing trust and robust business relationship between our companies, centered on the reliability and performance of Howo trucks in the demanding Zimbabwean environment. The agenda was packed with three key objectives: finalizing an order for new Howo concrete mixer trucks, discussing a substantial parts procurement plan, and strategizing for long-term collaborative success.
The delegation from Zimbabwe was warmly greeted at our headquarters, where discussions began with a shared recognition of the critical role that heavy-duty Zimbabwe Howo Trucks play in infrastructure and development projects across the country. As a key supplier, our client is pivotal in keeping construction and logistics fleets operational.
The visit commenced with a comprehensive tour of our facilities, showcasing our extensive inventory of genuine parts, advanced logistical capabilities, and dedicated technical support center. Our guests were highly impressed by our streamlined processes and capacity to meet their specific market needs promptly and efficiently. They particularly noted the value of our customized parts solutions and aftersales support system, which are essential for maximizing the performance and lifespan of Zimbabwe Howo Trucks in challenging operating environments.
This further reinforced their confidence in our partnership and commitment to providing ongoing, reliable support for all their heavy-duty truck requirements.
This visit encompassed far more than business negotiations. In direct response to our client’s request, DERUNA’s senior engineering team organized a dedicated training session focused on the latest technological advancements and common fault diagnostics for Howo trucks. The delegation immersed themselves in our technical workshop, engaging in in-depth discussions with our frontline engineers on specific technical challenges faced by Zimbabwe Howo Trucks in real-world operations. From precision adjustments of engine management systems to maintenance techniques for the chassis and transmission systems, our team shared knowledge generously and comprehensively.
This transfer of expertise ensures that our partner is not only equipped with high-quality Zimbabwe Howo Trucks but also possesses the professional capability to maximize vehicle value and service life. Such deep technical support strengthens their competitive advantage in the market, enabling them to provide superior service and support to end-users across Zimbabwe.
A cornerstone of the discussion was the client’s order for new Howo concrete mixer trucks. Recognizing the specific challenges of the African continent—from rugged terrains to variable climate conditions—we focused on presenting configurations designed for durability, efficiency, and maximum uptime.

The business discussions were positively underscored by the client’s highly satisfactory feedback on the existing fleet of Zimbabwe Howo Trucks already supplied by DERUNA. They reported that the trucks have become a backbone for various transport and construction companies within their network, renowned for their:
Exceptional Durability: The trucks consistently withstand the harsh operating conditions, including poor road quality and heavy loads, with minimal structural issues.
Low Operational Costs: Compared to other brands, Howo trucks from DERUNA have proven to be highly cost-effective, with excellent fuel economy and lower maintenance requirements.
Reliability and Uptime: The robustness of the engines and transmissions ensures that the trucks spend more time on the road generating revenue and less time in the workshop.
Ease of Maintenance: The straightforward mechanical design and availability of parts through DERUNA make routine servicing and repairs manageable for local technicians.
This positive user experience is the strongest foundation for continued partnership and a powerful testament to the quality we deliver to our clients dealing in Zimbabwe Howo Trucks.
Looking beyond the immediate vehicle order, a significant portion of the visit was dedicated to formulating a comprehensive parts supply strategy. The client aims to secure a reliable pipeline for over 30 sets of critical components to support their growing fleet and their own customer base.
Understanding the operational patterns and common wear-and-tear issues of Zimbabwe Howo Trucks, our technical team at DERUNA provided a data-driven recommendation for the initial parts order. We advised on a strategic mix of fast-moving consumables and essential rebuild components to minimize downtime.
This curated selection ensures our partner in Zimbabwe can offer top-tier service, reinforcing the reputation of Zimbabwe Howo Trucks for reliability and strengthening DERUNA’s role as a cornerstone of their supply chain.
The high-level discussions extended far beyond immediate orders, delving into a strategic analysis of the massive growth potential within Zimbabwe and the broader Southern African Development Community (SADC) region for heavy-duty trucks. With infrastructure development and mining activities experiencing a significant resurgence, demand for reliable, cost-effective Zimbabwe Howo Trucks—including dump trucks, mixer trucks, and tractor units—is surging exponentially.
Leveraging our robust market data analytics, DERUNA provided valuable insights, guiding our partner toward the most promising market segments and growth opportunities. Our dialogue evolved to explore transforming our relationship from a straightforward trading agreement into a deep-rooted strategic partnership. A key visionary proposal on the table was the feasibility of establishing a regional parts depot in Harare. This strategic hub would not only serve all Zimbabwe Howo Trucks users but also radiate across neighboring countries, ensuring a rapid 48-hour parts delivery service. This initiative is designed to completely eliminate customer concerns, guaranteeing maximum uptime and solidifying the reputation of Howo trucks as the most dependable choice in the region.
The successful visit from our Zimbabwean partner is more than a single transaction; it is a reaffirmation of a strategic alliance. By investing in the right Howo concrete mixer truck configurations and establishing a solid framework for parts supply, we are collectively ensuring that businesses relying on Zimbabwe Howo Trucks have the equipment and support they need to build and develop their nation.
DERUNA is committed to being the foremost partner for Zimbabwe Howo Trucks and parts, providing not just products, but solutions, expertise, and unwavering support. We look forward to a prosperous future, powering projects and driving growth across Zimbabwe, one reliable truck and one genuine part at a time.
