Greyhound Lubricants is built to be sold locally. The model is straightforward — international-standard base oils and additive systems, blended to specification, supplied to distributors at a landed cost that lets them compete on quality rather than only on price.
We are actively appointing distributors in markets across Africa, the Middle East and Asia, and we would rather have one committed partner in a territory than three half-interested ones.
Partnering with Greyhound Lubricants
- Why Partner With Us — the commercial case, margin structure and the support we provide.
- Become a Distributor — how the appointment process works and what we look for.
What we look for in a distributor
Warehousing and a working distribution capability matter more than size. So does a technical grasp of the product, because lubricants are sold on specification and a distributor who cannot answer an OEM approval question will lose the sale. Existing relationships in automotive, transport, mining, agriculture or industry are a strong advantage, and so is a willingness to invest in stock rather than trade purely on back-to-back orders.
In return we provide territory protection, full technical documentation and specification sheets, product training, artwork and marketing support, and pricing that leaves genuine room in the channel.
Already supplied in South Africa
In our home market the range is distributed directly. South African customers can buy the full bulk and packaged lubricant range from Greyhound Lubricants South Africa, and workshop consumables, filters, additives and automotive parts from Greyhound Auto Retail. Those two operations are also the working proof of the model — the same products, the same specifications, sold every day into a competitive market.
