WENZHOU, CHINA – October 25, 2025 – In a significant move to deepen international trade relations and foster industrial collaboration between China and East Africa, Zhejiang Neochi Electric Co., Ltd. was honored to welcome the owner and senior leadership of Africab Group, Tanzania’s premier manufacturer of electrical products, to its Wenzhou headquarters today. The high-profile visit, which took place on October 25, 2025, marks a pivotal moment in the partnership between the two companies. It served as a platform to showcase Zhejiang Neochi’s advanced manufacturing capabilities, discuss future product roadmaps, and reinforce a shared commitment to delivering high-quality electrical solutions to the African market.
A Warm Welcome in Wenzhou
Upon arrival at the Zhejiang Neochi headquarters in the Binhai New Area, the Africab Group delegation was greeted with a grand reception. The entrance was emblazoned with a digital welcome message reading "Warmly Welcome Africab Group Big Boss EZ," setting a tone of mutual respect and enthusiastic hospitality.
A dedicated team of Neochi staff, uniformed in vibrant red company attire, gathered to welcome the guests, symbolizing the energy and passion of the Neochi workforce. This gesture underscored the high value Zhejiang Neochi places on its relationship with Africab Group, recognizing them not just as a client, but as a key strategic partner in the global supply chain.
Synergies in Electrical Manufacturing
The core agenda of the visit was an in-depth tour of Zhejiang Neochi’s state-of-the-art production facilities. Africab Group is renowned in Tanzania and the wider East African region as a manufacturing giant. They are the leading producer of a wide spectrum of electrical infrastructure goods, including wires and cables, transformers, switch gears, PVC conduit pipes, and trunking.
Africab’s corporate mission is to provide an extensive range of low, medium, and high-voltage electrical products and solutions under a "single roof," with zero compromise on quality. This philosophy aligns perfectly with Zhejiang Neochi’s operational strengths. With over 30 years of expertise in manufacturing electrical switches, sockets, and smart control systems, Neochi complements Africab’s heavy-industry portfolio with precision architectural electrical components.
Witnessing "Smart Manufacturing" Firsthand
During the factory walkthrough, the Africab leadership was given a transparent look into the "Smart Factory" ecosystem that Zhejiang Neochi has cultivated over recent years. The delegation observed the company’s digitalization efforts, where traditional manufacturing meets Industry 4.0 automation.
A highlight of the tour, captured in photographs from the event, showed the Africab owner personally inspecting the assembly and packaging lines. The delegation paid close attention to the quality of finish and packaging standards. Notably, the production lines were seen handling products in customized "AFRICAB" branded packaging. This demonstrates the depth of the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) relationship between the two entities, proving Zhejiang Neochi’s capability to deliver bespoke manufacturing services that meet the specific branding and technical requirements of top-tier international clients.
"Seeing the production process up close reinforces our confidence in the partnership," noted a representative during the tour. The guests scrutinized the assembly details of the wall switches, discussing the durability of materials and the precision of the internal mechanisms. Neochi’s technical team was on hand to explain the rigorous testing procedures conducted in their CNAS-standard laboratory, ensuring that every switch and socket destined for the Tanzanian market meets strict safety and performance criteria.
A Shared Vision for Quality and Growth
The visit provided an opportunity to discuss the evolving needs of the African construction and energy sectors. As infrastructure development accelerates across Tanzania and East Africa, the demand for reliable, safe, and aesthetically pleasing electrical fittings is at an all-time high.
Zhejiang Neochi showcased its ability to support Africab’s "one roof" vision by supplying the critical interface elements—the switches and sockets that end-users interact with daily. By combining Africab’s locally manufactured heavy electrical goods (cables and transformers) with Neochi’s high-end, customized wiring devices, the partnership offers a complete, end-to-end solution for residential and commercial developers in the region. The discussion also touched upon future innovations. With Neochi’s R&D team constantly developing new products—such as the Ultraslim and Diamond series seen at recent international expos—there is significant potential to introduce more smart-home ready and design-centric products to the Africab catalog.
Conclusion: Powering the Future Together
The successful visit on October 25 concluded with a renewed sense of purpose. For Zhejiang Neochi Electric, hosting the Africab Group leadership was a testament to its standing as a trusted global manufacturer. It highlighted the company’s transition from a simple factory to a sophisticated technology partner capable of supporting industry leaders like Africab.
As Zhejiang Neochi continues to expand its global footprint—having already achieved sales exceeding $16 million USD in 2024—partnerships like this are the cornerstone of its strategy. By aligning with strong regional players and maintaining an unwavering focus on quality and "Global Creativity," Zhejiang Neochi Electric is poised to light up homes and businesses not just in China, but across the African continent and beyond.
The management and staff of Zhejiang Neochi Electric extend their sincere gratitude to the Africab Group for their visit and look forward to a prosperous year of collaboration in 2026.
