Apply to become a distributor
We appoint a limited number of distributors and importers per market. This page tells you exactly what we look at, in what order, and what we need from you. Nothing here is an offer of appointment — appointment terms come only from written authorization.
What we look at before a market review
These are the criteria used to decide whether a market review is worth doing. They are indicative: final requirements for your market are confirmed in writing during evaluation.
- A registered trading entity
You are a registered company permitted to import and resell vehicles in your market.
- Commercial vehicle sales experience
You already sell trucks, buses, pickups or commercial equipment, or you can show comparable distribution experience.
- Demonstrated market coverage
You can describe the territory you actually reach — branch network, dealer relationships or direct fleet customers.
- Import and customs capability
You have, or work with, a customs broker and can complete clearing, duties and inland transport in your market.
- After-sales and parts plan
You can describe how vehicles will be serviced and how spare parts will be supplied once they are on the road.
- Financial and operational capacity
You can fund an import cycle and hold the inventory, premises and staff the volume you propose requires.
How an application is evaluated
Six steps, in this order. Each one can end the process — that is deliberate, because a market review costs both sides time.
- Submit the market enquiry
You send the form on this page. Incomplete enquiries are returned for the missing detail before anything else happens.
- Capability review
We review your company, territory, sales capability and after-sales plan against the eligibility criteria above.
- Market and territory check
Import requirements and territory availability for your market are checked against the applicable authorization scope.
- Scope discussion
If the market is workable, we discuss what the authorization would actually cover — products, territory and responsibilities.
- Written authorization
Authorization, if granted, is issued in writing with a named scope. Until that document exists, no appointment exists.
- Onboarding and first order
Documentation, configuration confirmation and the first order sequence are prepared together.
Submitting an application starts a review. It does not create a territory reservation, a price commitment or a distribution right.
What to have ready
Not required to send the form, but a market review stalls without them. Requested during evaluation, in the order listed.
- Company registration and business licence
- Company profile, including years trading and current activity
- Commercial vehicle sales record or reference summary
- Intended territory and coverage plan
- After-sales and spare parts service plan
- Import capability summary, including customs broker details
- Any relevant import licence or permit for your market
Send your market enquiry
Fields marked with an asterisk are required. The more precisely you describe your territory and intended duty cycle, the more useful our first reply will be.
