KCB and Tata Africa customers will now be able to access a competitive asset-based loan enabling them to secure vehicles from TATA Africa Holdings.

This asset finance deal with TATA Africa is a perfect reflection of this commitment.”

Tata Africa have been the market leaders in their category and Tata has become a brand of choice for most in the construction sector, a key pillar in the Kenyan economy.

On his part, Kamal Rohira, Auto Business Head – Tata Africa Holdings (K) Ltd said: “The partnership targets individuals, Small Medium Size companies and large commercial businesses for easy and attractive loans of up to 95% of the vehicle cost. Delivering uptime to customers is our key objective and we will ensure that our customers are continuously served with complete satisfaction.

In this partnership, we go hand in hand with customers in making Tata commercial vehicles very affordable”

TATA Kenya has recently opened TATA Authorized Service Stations (TASS) in Eldoret and Kisumu. This move aims to ensure that customers get access to specialized services post-purchase, given the rising demand for vehicles used in construction.

The agreement begins on November 10, 2021 and will last for one year.
