Built for the conditions

Why Indian oils work here

India runs the same punishing duty cycle as most of Africa — extreme heat, dust, overloading and long service intervals. Our grades are developed against exactly those conditions, not temperate European ones.

Heat & dust tolerance

High-temperature oxidation stability and strong detergency to handle dust ingress on unsealed roads.

Two-wheeler depth

Africa's motorcycle-taxi economy runs on 4T oil. Our 4T range spans API SJ to SN, including full synthetic.

Landed-cost advantage

Indian manufacturing plus short Indian Ocean shipping routes give competitive CIF pricing against European brands.

Partnership

The distributor programme

We appoint one partner per territory and back them properly.

Exclusive territory

Protected country or regional rights, so you can invest in the brand without being undercut.

Own brand option

Sell Unisol, or let us produce under your own label with your artwork and grade line-up.

Trial container

Start with a mixed 20ft container to test several product lines before committing to volume.

Marketing support

Artwork, point-of-sale material, banners and mechanic-facing collateral for your market.

Questions

Importer FAQ

What is the minimum order quantity?

Our standard export unit is a full container load — a 20ft container for first trial orders, 40ft for repeat volume. Mixed containers are accepted so you can test engine oils, gear oils, coolants and greases in a single shipment.

Can you supply under our own brand?

Yes. We manufacture private-label and OEM lubricants — your brand on the label, your artwork, your pack sizes. Many African distributors use this to build a house brand.

Which ports do you ship from?

We load from Mundra and Kandla in Gujarat, India — both with direct services to West and East African ports.

What Incoterms and payment terms apply?

We quote FOB and CIF. Payment is typically by irrevocable Letter of Credit or telegraphic transfer, agreed per order and per market.

What pack sizes are available?

From 500ml sachets and bottles through 1L, 5L and 20L pails up to 210L drums — chosen to suit your market's retail pattern.
