Inchcape Plc, a UK based multinational, is an automotive distributor, retailer, and a services company. In Africa, Inchcape has dealerships in Kenya (Inchcape Kenya) and Ethiopia (MOENCO) with Kenya being a hub for 7 other African countries.

Speaking during the official launch of BMW Motorrad (motorcycles) at One Africa Place Building, Westlands- Nairobi, Inchcape Kenya limited Managing Director Hussein Ibrahim said that the entry of the company in the market will ensure better service delivery and as well provide better buying power to the consumer.

“Our goal is to ensure that we keep our customers first by providing them with the best services they can get.

The BMW motorcycle is a top-end product defined by its sleekness, power, performance, luxury, and comfort, making it a preference for many motorcycle racers and the biking community. Biking in Kenya is expanding, with the community growing by the day. Many Kenyans today are looking for fun activities to keep them engaged.
“We have experienced brand love from our customers and the growing biking enthusiasts because of our wide product range and the brand promise of bringing joy to clients through Modern technology,” added Ibrahim.
