For equipment OEMs & dealers
Machines sell through projects, not showrooms.
Earthworks, roads, developments and quarries across the island need excavators, loaders, dozers, compaction and concrete machinery — bought and hired against project timelines.
In short
Heavy equipment brands access Zanzibar through strategic market representation: project-lead flow from contractors and developers, local sales support, and coordinated importation and hire models — without a yard, stock or staff on the island.
Nobody buys a wheel loader from a display plinth. The programme works the representation model: project introductions, hire-versus-buy structuring, operator and service coordination, and delivery to site.
Hire opens doors
Equipment-hire models let contractors use your machines before buying — representation structures both.
Service sells iron
Spares, technicians and uptime commitments decide deals; the programme builds that support story locally.
No yard required
Machines arrive per deal with coordinated importation — your capital stays home until demand proves itself.

Direct answers
Do I need a Zanzibar branch to sell this category?
No. The Market Access Program is designed so you sell into Zanzibar without opening your own branch — Zanzibaba provides digital presence, planned physical display, local representation and RFQ access.
How do buyers find my products?
Verified listings are published into Zanzibaba's customer-facing marketplace, matched to category searches and BOQ/RFQ intake, then followed up locally by the commercial team.
Are programme fees commissions on my sales?
No. Annual programme fees cover presence and support services. Sales commissions, procurement margins or project-specific terms apply separately and are agreed in writing where relevant.
Can I start digital-only and add physical display later?
Yes. Start with Digital Market Access and upgrade to physical, premium, anchor or strategic tiers as demand proves itself.
Can hire fleet operators participate too?
Yes — hire companies join under the same representation architecture, receiving project-hire demand and fleet-placement opportunities.
