Gedore South Africa is the leading supplier of hand tools to the South African industrial sector and maintains this position by always supplying superior quality tools to its designated markets. Gedore SA also distributes to markets in Africa, Europe, Australia and Brazil.
Gedore South Africa underwrites its hand tool product quality proposition by offering a lifetime guarantee against inferior materials and workmanship on all products manufactured.
From these humble beginnings the company has grown into a multinational organization which has manufacturing operations in Germany, Austria, United Kingdom, Turkey, Brazil and South Africa.
The company remains a family business and is represented and sold on every continent in the world. Gedore Tools SA (Pty) Ltd was established in New Germany, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa in 1965 by two shareholders Omnitool GmbH and HW Schmidt Industrials (Pty) Ltd.
Initially forgings were imported from Germany and machined and plated locally. Later, drop forging hammers were installed which allowed the company to increase its percentage of value added by manufacturing products from locally procured steel.
This strategy, together with the quest for supplying superior product quality, gave the company a sustainable competitive advantage which has allowed it to become South Africa's leading supplier of quality tools to the industrial, automotive, DIY and mining sectors.
The association with the holding company in Germany has allowed Gedore Tools SA to benchmark its quality, products and processes with international standards and today the brand name Gedore is synonymous with superior quality and technology
