BMG has become Africa’s largest distributor of bearings, seals, power transmission components, electric and geared motors, belting and fasteners, as well as industrial filtration systems.

CEO Charles Walters said the group is recognised internationally as a world-class distributor and this recognition is reflected in the exclusive supply, service and distribution agreements with some of the world’s most respected manufacturers of leading engineering consumables.

He said the company is also a responsible corporate citizen, dedicated to quality, safety, skills transfer and social upliftment. As Bearing Man, its ISO 9001:2000 Quality Management System certification was obtained in 2003 and re-certification has been confirmed until December 2009.

As a subsidiary of Invicta Holdings, BMG emphasises that it is committed to transformation and upliftment in line with the government’s broad-based black economic empowerment initiative.

Invicta’s BEE partnership within the Humulani Group, as well as increased preferred procurement, training and skills development and enterprise advancements, ensures a continuous improvement in Bearing Man’s BEE rating under the BEE Codes, said Walters.

The group is also involved in the Business Trust, an initiative working in partnership with the government to help provide sustained improvements in the lives of the underprivileged.
