Engineering solutions, built on reliability.
Kenlen Group Africa is a Gaborone-based engineering solutions company supplying mining, manufacturing, processing and utilities equipment — and the service to keep it running — across Botswana, South Africa and Zimbabwe.
Who we are
Kenlen Group Africa operates a number of subsidiaries supplying mining equipment to the Southern African market. We are based at Gaborone International Commerce Park, with operations in all major mining towns across Botswana and Zimbabwe and an office in Johannesburg.
Conveyor and fluid systems are our specialty, but we also deliver complete solutions for mining — pneumatics, materials handling, and both mechanical and electrical systems. Our product range includes standard machinery as well as tailor-made solutions for customers with exact requirements.
Training programmes and after-sales support are in place to ensure the reliability and effectiveness of every machine we supply.
