Join hands with Shantui to chase dreams in Africa! The road to wealth for Shantui's customers in Cote d 'Ivoire
When it comes to 70-year-old Indian-Ivorian Lao A, he is almost known to everyone in the local construction industry. Behind its typical story of starting from scratch and being the first to pursue the "African Dream", its rapidly expanding business and increasingly large scale are inseparable from the purchase and application of Shantui's full range of products. As of 2019, the company where he worked had over 500 employees and more than 250 sets of construction machinery and vehicles, covering the full range of products including mountain push, road, installation and excavation.
Old A, born in Tanzania in 1950, saw his father start a business in the remanufacturing of auto parts and second-hand parts. Young A was deeply influenced and became very interested in the sales of heavy machinery and auto parts. In the 1960s, at the age of 18, Xiao A, who immigrated to Cote d 'Ivoire, was attracted by the country's huge potential for development during his work. Thanks to his previous work experience at A gas station, he gradually became familiar with the vehicle and mechanical business field in Cote d 'Ivoire, reigniting the passion and love of his childhood. Just like his father did in Tanzania, A began selling second-hand construction machinery and vehicle parts in Cote d 'Ivoire. In the first few years, A often rode a motorcycle back and forth between the client's construction site and his own company, providing necessary spare parts services for the clients. With A heart full of passion and diligence, A embarked on his journey of accumulating wealth.
In 1984, he officially established his own second-hand machinery and parts company. At that time, the economic take-off of Cote d 'Ivoire was in great need of a large investment in equipment and vehicles. The demand for mechanical parts also offers an excellent opportunity. Not long after, Old A established his own company, mainly engaged in public engineering construction and the supply of second-hand equipment and accessories. He collected old and discarded equipment, disassembled the parts for reprocessing, lived and worked at the construction site, and used containers as his office. During the political unrest in Cote d 'Ivoire in 2000, when the economy declined, Old A's company survived. In 2010, Cote d 'Ivoire once again faced A political crisis. However, at that time, Lao A's company was already widely praised and regarded as one of the most reliable companies in the field of construction machinery leasing and engineering construction in Cote d 'Ivoire. Lao A himself was also deeply respected and loved by the local people.
Around 2010, Lao A invested in Shantui West Africa and became one of the most important shareholders of Shantui West Africa. Since then, Old A gradually switched the company's construction machinery to the Shantui brand. With the support of Shantui's full range of equipment, after 2010, Lao A developed a number of heavyweight customers and became well-known far and wide in Cote d 'Ivoire. A large number of Chinese-funded companies in China also have good cooperative relations with it. Meanwhile, he has also collaborated with major French companies to supply a large number of Shantui equipment to serve various construction projects. And lease the full range of mountain push, road, installation, excavation and other equipment to internationally renowned companies, undertaking various major projects, etc.
In recent years, driven by his recognition of Shantui's products and after-sales service, Lao A has purchased Shantui products in bulk on multiple occasions. He has successively bought over ten sets of Shantui loaders, excavators and other construction machinery equipment, as well as several spare parts. He is one of Shantui's die-hard fans and partners in West Africa.
When it comes to Shantui, Old A is filled with countless emotions and has an indescribable affection for Shantui's products. He said, "My happy life is all brought to me by Shantui. I'm very grateful to Shantui and also hope that Shantui can help more people get rich!"
