Solar Water Heating Company Awards Zambia Distributorship

As part of its regional expansion program, SunTank awards sole distributorship in Zambia to Behrens Limited of Lusaka.

The healthy growth in demand for renewable energy technologies throughout Southern Africa triggered Behrens’ drive to add solar water heaters as a conventional line product. Mr. Banerjee, Behrens’ General Manager, embarked on a project to identify a suitable supplier for a range of solar heating products. SunTank of Pretoria, South Africa emerged as the most suitable contender for the partnership due to the holistic business approach it brought to the table. In addition to a range of quality products SunTank offered a range of value adding services such as staff training, technical support, marketing support, engineering services etc.

Behrens is currently stocking a range of competitively priced SunTank systems, making it possible to provide customers with immediate service saving the need to wait for individual systems to arrive from outside the country long after orders are placed.

Behrens Limited is a reputable electrical and hardware merchant in Lusaka with strong growth plans. Mr. Hamakoko of the Behrens team in Lusaka is currently in Pretoria for a 6 week period to get an in-depth understanding of all technical and business aspects that are essential for the successful running of a SunTank distributorship.
