Dharmesh Savla, Group CEO of Tononoka Group, a Kenyan steel industry leader which has been growing steadily for 36 years, talks about the history of the Group.
"The Tononoka Group started in the mid-1980s, and we started with very humble beginnings as a hardware shop. We then gradually moved on to manufacturing and from there we invested in a plant now known as rolling mills. We recently acquired shareholding in a metal fabrication company, David Engineering, so we have been growing steadily for the last 36 years. Presently, we are one of the leading steel manufacturers in Kenya, and in fact, in the region of East Africa. The competitive advantage that we have is due to our focus on customer care, quality products and services, efficiencies in deliveries, after sales support and value-added services, as well as a customer centric theme. We have invested in technology as well with some state-of-the-art equipment that is helping us to achieve what the customer requires. Quality is one of the main focuses that we have", says Dharmesh Savla.
