The appointment is part of the move by the German company to fully launch into the West African markets with GeBe range of products, including its newly-introduced made-in-Germany GeBe premium water pumps for a wide range of vehicles.

Promising to bring to Nigeria, Ghana and the larger West African markets, highest quality GEBE range of products at very competitive prices, with fast , efficient and cost effective delivery from its hub in central Germany, Head of Sales, IKA Germany, Sebastian Hoff, said his company had been missing a representation in Nigeria and other West African markets despite its popularity in other parts of Africa.

We promise not to betray the trust IKA Germany has reposed in us.”
