Africa
Locomotive parts and oil and gas equipment supply across Africa: EMD, ALCO and GE engine parts for railways, mines and ports in Egypt, Morocco, Kenya and South Africa, with export compliance handled from Canada.

African railways and mining operators run large fleets of EMD, ALCO and GE power and face the longest supply chains of any market we serve. We plan for that: consolidated sea shipments with air for urgent items, document packs that clear customs the first time, and quotations that state the real lead time per line.
National railway and industrial operators with EMD and GE fleets. Sea to Alexandria or Port Said, air to Cairo; Arabic correspondence on request.
Rail and industrial customers; sea to Casablanca or Tangier, air to Casablanca. French or Arabic correspondence on request.
Rail, port and industrial operators in East Africa; sea to Mombasa, air to Nairobi, with onward inland transit arranged.
Mining railroads, industrial rail and heritage operators with EMD, ALCO and GE power; sea to Durban or Cape Town, air to Johannesburg.

Questions we are asked
- How do you price and quote?
Per line, in USD, CAD or EUR, with condition, lead time and origin stated. Validity to your tender terms. No price is ever shown on the website; every quotation is prepared by an engineer for your engine and destination.
- What if a part number is wrong or obsolete?
We say so before quoting, propose the current reference or a qualified alternative, and note the reason in writing so your file shows why.
- Can you hold stock for a fleet?
For recurring customers we agree a standing list with lead times and a consolidation cadence, so urgent items ship within days and bulk items by sea on schedule.
Send the part numbers or tender extract; we plan the route with the quotation.
