Transerv

Transerv was established in 2002 initially as a cross border transport company also importing automotive spares for light vehicle workshops. Transerv capitalised on a niche market opportunity that arose in the spares wholesale market supplying larger operators with fast moving stock. Following Zimbabwe’s dollarization in 2009, the wholesale market became more competitive and a decision was taken to expand into the retail space with the first retail branch opened in Graniteside in May 2009.

Today, Transerv employs 319 people and utilises multiple retail channels to service the needs of its customers countrywide, operating through a network of 25 of its homegrown branded Transerv retail branches. Three of these Transerv retail branches were formerly franchised Midas stores. The retail network operates a total of 8,290m2 in space.

In addition, Transerv Fitment Center was launched as a complementary brand to offer customers a venue to fit their tyres, batteries and suspension, etc bought at Transerv. There are now 15 Transerv fitment centres operating from a total of 5,050m2 spread across the country. The company also operates specialist automotive businesses, namely Transerv Clutch and Brake (formerly Clutch & Brake Specialists (CBS), Transerv Diesel Services (formerly ADCO) and Transerv Auto Cycle Centre.

All these businesses are controlled and supported from Transerv Head Office.
