Since 2002, we’ve been helping African industries keep operations running smoothly where downtime isn’t an option.
Based right here in Mbombela (Nelspruit), Mpumalanga, Ugezi Automation delivers reliable automation solutions and control engineering across the continent. We design, manufacture, install, commission, and support systems that perform in tough, real-world conditions, not just on paper.
We understand the frustration and high stakes when electrical or automation failures cause costly shutdowns, safety risks, or compliance headaches.
That’s why we focus on building systems that are safe, compliant, user-friendly, and engineered for longevity, so you can focus on growing your business with confidence.
At Ugezi, Our Mission is Simple:
To design and deliver reliable, safe, and intelligent automation solutions that help our customers operate more efficiently, minimise risk, and scale with peace of mind.
We don’t just supply equipment. We commit to being your long-term technical partner.
That means taking full accountability from initial design through manufacturing, installation, commissioning, and ongoing support. When you work with us, you get a team that stands behind every system we deliver.
