At an exclusively hosted handover ceremony in Zimbabwe, FUSO Trucks and its authorised general distributor, ZIMOCO celebrated their newly-formed partnership with Baker’s Inn with a substantial delivery of 50 FUSO FE7-136 brand-new trucks.
In line with the company’s vehicle replacement policy, the first 50 units handed over form part of the massive order of 250 trucks. The remaining units will be delivered in batches in the upcoming years with the aim to ultimately replace the company’s existing non-Daimler Truck fleet. Baker’s Inn is beyond ecstatic to welcome its very first robust FUSO fleet and the new wheels will further boost its flourishing bread business and the increasing demands of customers in the region.
Since the official opening of the Regional Centre Southern Africa (RCSA) in 2016, ZIMOCO and its sister dealership, Southern Cross Motors have been the exclusive general distributors of Daimler Truck Southern Africa (DTSA) commercial vehicles in Zimbabwe and Zambia. With the success of the Baker’s Inn deal, Zimoco Commercial Vehicles will play a significant role in widening the company’s distribution network to the underserved areas of Zimbabwe. The new fleet will allow Baker’s Inn to grow this already impressive production from 450,000 loaves to 1 million loaves produced daily in the near future.
