The company with its roots in South Africa has great ambitions and is now responsible for the deliveries and after sales of the BBA Pumps mobile centrifugal pumps, piping systems and spare parts.

In the coming months, a large stock of mobile pumps and piping will be made available at strategic locations around Africa. In addition, a service team is being trained and the sales organization is being further developed.

“Our ultimate goal is to appoint a local dealer in every African country, with a particular focus on mobile pumps for emergency response and mining. The environmental climate has changed dramatically in recent years, many countries are now facing flooding due to heavy rainfall, with all the negative consequences which result from this.” Says CEO Elbert Timmerman.

“With the constant growth of the BBA Pumps brand, this is an important step for our company. In this way we can further expand our sales activities in Africa and strengthen our local service. We are looking forward to a professional collaboration.” Says Martijn Kleine Head of International Sales.
