The Challenge: Sourcing Car Parts in East Africa
The automotive market in East Africa is rapidly growing. With an increase in demand for vehicles, the need for vehicle maintenance and replacement parts has skyrocketed. However, sourcing the right parts has become a significant challenge for many car owners. Here are some of the reasons why:
Availability Issues: Not all parts are readily available in local markets. Parts for certain brands, models, or years may be out of stock or take a long time to import.
Counterfeit Parts: In an effort to cut costs, many dealers sell counterfeit or substandard parts, which often result in premature wear and tear or even safety risks.
High Freight Costs: Freight and import duties can be unpredictable and expensive, making it difficult to budget for international shipping.
Lack of Expertise: Many car owners aren’t experts when it comes to choosing the right part, leading to misorders or purchasing parts that aren't compatible with their vehicles.
Clearance Complications: Customs clearance, especially when importing from international markets, can cause delays and confusion for those not familiar with the process.
At Robert Motoring Consult, we recognized these issues and sought to provide a comprehensive solution that alleviates the stress and guesswork from sourcing car parts in East Africa.
What Makes Robert Motoring Consult Different?
At the core of our service is consulting. We aren't just a parts supplier—we're your expert partner in sourcing the right car parts for your vehicle, handling every detail from start to finish.
1. Expert Consultation
Before we source any part, we engage with you to understand exactly what you need. Our experienced team takes into account:
- The make and model of your vehicle
- Compatibility issues for rare or outdated models
- Whether you're looking for OEM parts or alternatives
- Any special requirements, such as the fragility of the parts or custom specifications
Through this, we minimize the risk of sourcing incorrect parts and ensure you get exactly what your car needs.
2. Global and Local Sourcing
We have an extensive network of reliable suppliers from both local and international markets. For those particularly hard-to-find parts, we work with global partners in Japan, Europe, and the United States, ensuring you get genuine parts at the best prices.
3. Freight and Clearance
One of the most tedious aspects of importing car parts is handling freight and customs clearance. Our service covers this completely. Whether you're sourcing from within East Africa or overseas, we collaborate with trusted local and international freight companies to ensure your parts are transported safely and efficiently.
Moreover, we manage all clearance processes, liaising with agents to ensure there are no hiccups during customs inspections. This way, we ensure your parts arrive on time and within budget.

5. Transparent Pricing
We believe in transparency. Our fees are straightforward and based on the scope of the work involved:
- For local parts: A minimum fee of $30 or 1.5% of the part's cost (whichever is higher).
- For parts sourced from other parts of East Africa: $100 or 2% of the part's cost, plus separate charges for freight and clearance as quoted by appointed agents.
