Bulawayo Company To Manufacture Motorcycles

A local company based in Bulawayo, Bike and Boat Bar Private Limited has ventured into the manufacturing of motorcycles both for the local and export market. The company was formed in 1993. Its core business entails servicing and repairing all types of motorcycles, maintaining fleets of motorcycles, etc. Motorcycles are considered cheaper than cars, faster and consume less fuel. Bike and Boat Bar manager Robyn Smith had this to say

Mr Bruce Hampson the director and founder of Bike and Boat Bar and Samic motorcycles has always wanted to produce the first locally manufactured motorcycle in our hometown, Bulawayo and this we have accomplished. This took us 15 years to produce, but we can now say we are the first in Zimbabwe to produce bonafide, genuine, affordable and durable motorcycles.

The deputy minister of Industry and Commerce, Raj Modi spoke glowing in support for the company. He said
