Unique Automotive imports and distributes truck and trailer parts — bearings, brake components, filters, and engine parts — for retail and B2B wholesale, backed by fleet maintenance supply contracts across Southern Africa.
Half retail counter, half wholesale account management — the goal is always the same: a truck that isn't standing still.
A typical week is a mix of retail counter sales — a workshop needing a bearing or a brake component to get a truck back out that afternoon — and larger wholesale orders for fleet operators restocking their own maintenance stores. Stock levels get checked against what's actually moving fast, because a truck parts business lives or dies on having the right part in stock, not the widest catalogue on paper.
Import coordination runs in the background most weeks — tracking container shipments of bearings, filters, and engine parts, and making sure landed stock gets through quality checks before it's shelved. Fleet maintenance supply contracts mean some clients don't place individual orders at all; they're on a standing agreement that gets fulfilled against their maintenance schedule.
Looking ahead, we're building out workshop services and mobile mechanics so we're not just supplying the part but also fitting it, plus a refurbished parts line for clients who don't need new-condition components for every job.
Parts categories built around what actually breaks first on a working truck.
Wheel and axle bearings for trucks and trailers, stocked across the common sizes and specs.
Brake pads, calipers, and drums for fleet vehicles, sourced for durability under heavy loads.
Oil, fuel, and air filters across common truck and trailer makes, stocked for fast turnaround.
Core engine components for scheduled maintenance and breakdown repairs alike.
Standing supply agreements for fleet operators, fulfilled against their own maintenance schedules.
Mobile mechanics and refurbished parts, moving from supplying components to fitting them too.
We stock against what breaks most often, not the widest possible catalogue that ties up capital in slow movers.
A counter sale gets the same quality checks as a bulk fleet order — no lower standard for smaller purchases.
Container tracking and quality checks happen before parts reach the shelf, not after a client complains.
Fleet maintenance supply agreements mean operators don't have to place a new order for every routine part.
