SPIRO and SRE launch of their first joint manufacturing facility in Kenya while the Ugandan plant is underway, with an 80% completion.
SPIRO and Guangdong SRE Technology celebrated the launch of their first joint manufacturing facility in Kenya, and also confirmed that the construction of a second facility in Uganda is underway, with an 80% completion.
In the heart of Shenzhen, China’s technological powerhouse, Guangdong SRE Technology Ltd has carved a niche as a global leader in innovative charging solutions. With a mission centered on “Safe Recharge E-mobility,” the company is extending its reach to Africa, partnering with one of the largest electric vehicle (EV) leaders, SPIRO, to catalyze a green transportation revolution in Kenya and Uganda. Their collaboration—marked by newly launched factories and ambitious infrastructure projects—highlights a growing global push toward sustainable mobility.
On March 26, SPIRO and Guangdong SRE Technology celebrated the launch of their first joint manufacturing facility in Kenya, a milestone in their quest to electrify Africa’s transport networks. The two parties confirmed that the construction of a second facility in Uganda is underway, with an 80% completion and full operations slated to begin in June.
“Following the successful establishment of our Kenya factory, the construction of our Uganda facility is also progressing steadily, now reaching 80% completion. The factory is set to be fully completed next month and is expected to commence production in June. This marks another significant milestone in our deep collaboration with SPIRO,” SRE wrote in a post on LinkedIn.
These factories will focus on producing electric motorcycles, battery-swapping systems, and charging infrastructure, underscoring a strategic effort to combat carbon emissions while addressing Africa’s unique mobility challenges.
The facilities are more than industrial ventures; they represent a fusion of Chinese technological expertise and African market insight. For SRE, a company with factories in Dongguan and Malaysia, the projects align with its vision of “Safe Recharge”—delivering reliable, user-centric solutions. For SPIRO, a rising star in Africa’s EV sector, the partnership is a leap toward its goal of deploying electric motorcycles and swap stations across the continent.
SPIRO and SRE’s emphasis on battery-swapping technology addresses two critical African challenges: erratic electricity supply and low purchasing power.
