His fascination for computers, passion for solving problems using the latest technology, some programming experience and an extraordinary ability to build lasting business relationships fuelled this venture. Simply put – productivity, plant availability and performance is what we sell. 

Although projects started in the automotive industry, by 2011, Mechatronics identified bakeries as their area of focus, opened offices in Pretoria and the game suddenly changed. By 2012, they acquired sole distribution rights for Kaak – the global leader in baking machinery – throughout the Pan-African region. This allowed them to further their competencies within the baking industry and establish their niche. They were involved in several projects throughout Africa, Europe, America and Asia. In 2017, they opened their state-of-the-art production facility in Port Elizabeth and employ some of the top mechanical designers, PLC programmers, robot programmers, electricians, project managers, installation managers and artisans. Employees often start as interns and are groomed for more senior positions.  

Today, Mechatronics specialise in FMCG production facilities and offer turnkey solutions in numerous countries throughout Africa with plans for further expansion. Although they continue to grow, the heart of the company, the loyalty, drive for innovation, superior customer and supplier relationships still remain at the very core of their existence.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row line=”right” css=”.vc_custom_1574083847745{padding-bottom: 0px !important;}” el_id=”process”][vc_column][vc_column_text]
