AKAPOLCO INTERNATIONAL

One of the largest suppliers of Ball/Roller Bearings of all kinds to African markets

Akapolco International has been at the forefront of supplying quality ball and roller bearings to the local, regional and international markets at extremely competitive rates. The company maintains a huge stock of premium international brand names like NSK, NTN, Nachi, Koyo as well as cheaper brands like URB from Romania, TAM from China, FLT from Poland and GPZ from Russia. These stocks are ready for shipment at short notice to meet the varied demands of customers around the world. "Having an inventory as big as ours helps us to meet the needs of our clients expeditiously and to provide them with a reliable and efficient source for their requirements," says Dipak Jani, managing director of Akapolco.

Akapolco International's showroom in Dubai has been serving the increasing demand for ball and roller bearings in emerging markets like Europe and Africa as well as the established markets in Iran, Middle East and the CIS. The company has earned a loyal clientele in these markets by providing quality goods at rock-bottom prices.

"We are able to pass on the price benefits to our customers because we import our goods directly from the manufacturers," says Dipak Jani, who has been involved in the business of bearings for well over a decade now. "In addition to the low prices of our products, we also offer our customers a quick, reliable and efficient service - a combination that has been the hallmark of our success," he says.

Akapolco has been specially active in the African market where it has been supplying bearings for many years. Countries in Sub-Saharan Africa like Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania as well as Eritrea, Somalia and Ethiopia have been some of the major markets for Akapolco. "Demand for bearings has been increasing in these markets and we have registered a two-fold growth in our sales to these countries in the last two years," pointed Dipak Jani. "We are expecting the African market to grow further in the coming years and are therefore targetting these markets in a big way," he said.

African customers have been flocking to Akapolco International's office in view of the cheap prices on offer and because of the company's long time reputation as a reliable and specialised dealer in quality products. Indeed, the company's untiring commitment to quality and customer satisfaction have been the pillars of its success.
