FUSO Trucks heightens its foothold in Zimbabwe with an astounding deal to supply 250 trucks to Baker’s Inn! At an exclusively hosted handover ceremony in Zimbabwe, FUSO Trucks and its authorised general distributor, ZIMOCO celebrated their newly- formed partnership with Baker’s Inn with a substantial delivery of 50 FUSO FE7-136 brand-new trucks. In line with the company’s vehicle replacement policy, the first 50 units handed over form part of the massive order of 250 trucks. The remaining units will be delivered in batches in the upcoming years with the aim to ultimately replace the company’s existing non-Daimler Truck fleet. Baker’s Inn is beyond ecstatic to welcome its very first robust FUSO fleet and the new wheels will further boost its flourishing bread business and the increasing demands of customers in the region. The handover ceremony was hosted at Zimoco Commercial Vehicles Sales Office, and the guests in attendance were amongst others; Benjamin Mavros, COO Baker’s Inn, Samual Makore General Manager at Bakers Inn Logistics Northern Region, Bob Crossley CEO of ZIMOCO, Michael Dietz President and CEO of Daimler Truck Southern Africa and Peter Kendzorra Chief Finance Officer of Daimler Truck Southern Africa.
