Manufacturers are set to benefit from dry storage and
warehouses to be unveiled countrywide by regional leasing firm, Vehicle and
Equipment Leasing Limited (VAELL), in what pundits termed as a sharing economy.
The model dubbed ‘space share’ will ease manufacturers’ logistics headaches
since they don’t need to own warehouses and storage and therefore not incurring
the cost of building and even renting the entire space that they are not using.
Businesses will only be required to pay for the space they are using as they
share the other space with others in trucks or in the warehouses. This will
enhance the traditional warehouse market, from temporary trailers to
Airbnb-style matchmakers that provides warehouse space and logistics together.
Space Share is expected to revive the distribution
model that has collapsed countrywide and revamp supply chain networks to
embrace e-commerce expectations. The Naivasha based asset leasing firm’s new
strategy to ease cost of storage for manufactures indicates a growing shift by
companies in a bid to slice cost of doing business in these challenging
economic times. The regional lessor becomes the first company in the region to
come up with a space leasing scheme for manufacturers, suppliers and hauling
companies. Such consumer’
oriented innovations for the mass market have made the firm bag various awards. The lessor was
recently ranked by various award organizers as the preferred leasing firm in
the region.
According to VAELL Kenya’s MD, Bertha Mvati, the
country has a cute shortage of warehouses and dry storage where manufacturers
can store their goods as they wait for customers to buy. This has contributed
to a low manufacturing due to fear of goods going bad.
“This invention
is demand driven. We are responding to the market needs. Manufactures have been
asking us if we can have this model in Kenya. We are happy that finally we have
been able to come up with a product that suits their needs. It is being
practiced in developed countries and we believe it will be a success here too,”
added Bertha.
With the dry storage and warehouses businesses can
store their merchandises in strategic locations where supplies can be made
proportion to the market demand. The warehouses will also act as distribution
centers and hence enhancing service delivery and customer satisfaction.
By providing enough space to store products closer to
the consumers, space share will reduce trips made by manufactures’ daily from
Nairobi, Mombasa, Thika, Nakuru and other industrial areas to make deliveries
in the rural areas,” said Bertha Mvati, Vaell Managing Director for Kenya.
VAELL has once again been featured in the prestigious list of Tanzania’s Top 100 Mid-Sized companies for the year 2019/20 in an event held at Serena Hotel in Dar Es Salaam. This time round we were ranked position 29, being an improvement from number 45 in last year’s survey. This is the fourth appearance on the same survey for our Tanzanian branch. The annual ranking is organized by Citizen newspaper in conjunction with KPMG Tanzania. The annual award winners are normally selected from a competitive pool of applicants through a rigorous scrutiny. A panel of independent judges classify the winners based on their reach, uniqueness and innovation, effectiveness and impact.
Vaell Tanzania team receiving the award
VAELL
Tanzania was the only leasing firm that made it to the list this year. This is
our third major award this year having scooped two other honors in Kenya where
we were recognized as the leading lessor and lessor of choice by other such
acknowledgement organizers.
VAELL
Kenya did not participate in the KPMG award this year since we already passed
this category. In 2014, VAELL Kenya was
ranked the first runner-up in the survey and rose to Club 101 in 2015.
We
owe the success to your contribution and the dedication of our Tanzania team.
It
is worth noting that in 2018 we were also recognized as the best East African
Company in service sector by East African Business council Tanzania
It
is an honor to be recognized at a regional level for our efforts in supporting
the growth of SMEs. The award organizers said that our improvement in the
ranking came as a result of good and sustainable profitability supported by
ability to innovate products and adapt to the market. They also said that since
inception we have been at the fore front in supporting and empowering Small and
Medium Enterprises through offering customized leasing services for our
clients.
In
the recent months, the Tanzanian team has tremendously improved and led by
example. This is a challenge to other teams to benchmark with this improvement
and post better results.

Regional
leasing firm, Vehicle and Equipment Leasing Limited (VAELL), has launched Zero
Early Return Cost lease program dubbed ‘Time Share’ to help businesses and
individuals withstand fluctuating business environment. The lessor becomes the
first firm to implement lease break program for SME’s and the broader market in
the region and is expected to bring new development to the ordinary lease. The
existing lease locks clients throughout the lease period without an exit plan.
Many people feel the lease is cost-demanding because you have to pay for the
asset even when not using it. The idle equipment turns to be a liability rather
than an asset, lowering profit margins. In finance lease you cannot take a break
while servicing a loan. When loanee fails to pay the banks the agreed amount
they face the risk of their assets being repossessed.
Individuals
and institutions which only require assets services during peak seasons fear
incurring losses while paying for the asset once the demand goes down. Hence,
the new lease will gives them an opportunity to lease the asset at a time of
demand and return to the lessor after the use. This comes as a sigh of relief to businesses that
are seasonal as the product allows clients to return assets until such a time a
contract is renewed.
Bertha
Mvati, lessor’s MD for Kenya said, “This will provide break options for our
clients and is in compliance with the new IFRS rules. We have not attached
legal demands when a client decides to take a break before the lease maturity.
If your business is seasonal, why should we lock you in?”
“This lease program is very flexible and
allows clients to end their leases early without penalties. This offer may
create substantial equity for our customers,” said Bertha Mvati.
Time
Share is designed for companies and individuals to free their leases from
financial commitment should their personal circumstances change unexpectedly,
for instance if their contract or tender is cancelled suddenly. It enables the
lessee to hand the asset back, without the worry of funding the difference
between the market value of the vehicle and the outstanding finance settlement
amount. Life is full of changes. The chances are that some unforeseen event and
challenges resulting in a change to financial situations may happen at some
stage during the term of a lease agreement.
“We
understand fluctuating business environment and we would like to help our
clients. With Time Share, customers get to match their machinery requirement
with not only their long term needs but also their short term needs and pay
absolutely zero rest lease fees,” she added.
The
company is placing vehicles worth more than Kes. 300 million into the program. This
program will benefit lessor’s clients in various African countries including
Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and Southern Africa Market.
