For decades, Nalco has been a cornerstone in Djibouti’s industrial and construction sectors, earning the confidence of businesses across the region.

From its early days as a small family-owned business to becoming an industry leader, Nalco Equipment has maintained a deep understanding of the local market needs while bringing the latest innovations in heavy machinery to Africa.

This is more than just business — it is a legacy in motion. The new generation of leadership at Nalco Equipment is not only continuing the success of the past but also driving forward a new vision of growth, efficiency, and international trade expansion.

Why This Partnership is a Game-Changer for East Africa

JCB is a global leader in construction and heavy equipment, ranking №1 in Africa, Europe, and Asia. With over 75 years of innovation, JCB is known for manufacturing high-quality, durable, and efficient machinery that is trusted for major construction projects worldwide.

Now, thanks to Nalco Equipment’s partnership with JCB, businesses in Djibouti and Ethiopia can benefit from:

  • Access to Premium Machinery — No more relying on expensive imports from distant markets. High-quality JCB equipment is now locally available.
  • Support for Large-Scale Infrastructure Projects — With massive construction and industrial projects underway, this partnership ensures companies get the best equipment on time and at competitive prices.
  • Strengthening Africa’s Construction Market — As urbanization continues to rise, reliable heavy equipment suppliers like Nalco Equipment play a crucial role in economic growth.

With Ethiopia’s rapid economic growth and massive construction projects, this partnership is set to revolutionize the heavy machinery industry by making top-tier equipment more accessible and affordable.

Djibouti Free Zone: The Gateway to Africa’s Trade and Industrial Future

Djibouti is a strategic trade and logistics hub, serving as a gateway between Africa and global markets. The Djibouti Free Zone provides a unique advantage for businesses, offering:

  • Reduced taxes and tariffs on imports and exports

By becoming an official JCB distributor in Djibouti, Nalco Equipment is further solidifying Djibouti Free Zone’s role as a powerhouse for industrial growth.
