Indian vehicle manufacturer Mahindra is planning to use Kenya as its African assembly hub as it aims to increase market share in both commercial and passenger segments.
The firm is this week set for the unveiling of its first batch of locally-assembled double and single cab pick-up models, starting with a ceremony at State House on Monday and a customer event on Wednesday. The trucks are being assembled at Simba Corporation’s Associated Vehicle Assemblers (AVA) plant in Mombasa, adding to the number of vehicle models that are now being fully assembled in Kenya.
