Why Kafue needs ball bearings
Industrial town with fertiliser production and the Kafue Gorge hydropower station. Bearings are wear parts: every motor, pump, conveyor pulley, gearbox and farm machine has them, and plants replace them on a fixed maintenance cycle or after a failure that stops production.
Zambia is Africa's second-largest copper producer. The Copperbelt drives most industrial demand, while Lusaka is the commercial centre. Cargo arrives by road or rail through Dar es Salaam, Durban, Beira or Walvis Bay.
