ABOUT US
Megh Cushion Industries Ltd was incorporated in 1976 initially to service the domestic furniture industry and started with manufacturing household furniture such as sofa sets, lounge settees, day beds, etc to cater for the mass market through trading houses linked to low income finance. However, with the advent of motor assembly plants in 1977, we shifted our focus on OEM supplies to the local motor vehicle assembly plants that were starting up to supply vehicles to the East African region.
Starting initially with a workforce of six, the company reached the height of its production in 1990 supplying upto 20,000 trim kits annually to the three assembly plants in Nairobi (General Motors and Fiat), one in Thika (30kms from Nairobi) and one in Mombasa (480 kms from Nairobi). By this time the company had a workforce of 350 and were supplying OEM parts to 35 different models of cars, pick-up trucks and heavy commercial vehicles to a mixed assortment of vehicles from Isuzu, Nissan, Toyota, Peugeot, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Suzuki, Daihatsu, Hino, Niva Lada, Fiat and UD amongst others with smaller volumes.
Following relaxation of import controls in the late 90’s, instituted by the World Bank in preparing for globalisation policies, the OEM market started to dwindle and local manufacturing of automotive parts suffered due to lack of protection. In the early 2000, Megh Cushion Industries prepared to diversify into transport seating with our product range extending from basic commuter seats to executive inter-city coach seats. In this respect we import a large variety of bus accessories and seats to supply the requirements of the local bus and coach builders. In order to service the requirements of some local bus operators who operate their services in the rural areas with bad roads, we have made heavy duty seats to sustain the damage from such terrain that imported seats from the Asian continent could not survive.
