Diesel truck maintenance problems in Mbujimayi - Patrick Mupoyi Kazadi - Bog

Motor trucks are becoming increasingly important in the Congo, particularly for transporting goods from their production centers to the major consumption centers, which are generally the country's big cities.With an annual growth rate of over 88%, the Congo's car fleet is worth billions. The sector is flourishing, the market juicy. There's something for everyone, depending on their field of activity. From the professional to the informal. But the State is the most satisfied. Without doing anything other than pressing the gas pedal on the tax pressure, it's getting the lion's share.Since a garage is a service provider, our study aims to contribute to the evolution of both jobs and the region's economy. On the one hand, there's a large movement of vehicles, characterized above all by goods trucks requiring frequent maintenance. On the other hand, the region's offer consists solely of the services of a small, unorganized garage, unable to satisfy customers and forcing them to look elsewhere.
