Who we are

BHBW South Africa, previously trading as Barloworld Handling and Barloworld Agriculture, was established in 2017 to create a new value proposition in materials handling and agriculture in southern Africa. The company is a 50/50 joint venture between Barloworld South Africa and German trading group BayWa Ag.

On the materials handling side, BHBW builds on Barloworld’s track record as a leading supplier of equipment and solutions to the market to grow its footprint and services. In agriculture, BHBW combines Barloworld’s expertise and BayWa’s capabilities as one of the leading agricultural traders worldwide to help farmers take food production to new levels.

We can trace our materials handling roots back to 1929 when Hyster lift trucks were first introduced into South Africa, and have been involved in agricultural mechanisation since 2001.

What Our People Say

Xolani Maxwell Mkhize

"High levels of aftersales support are essential in the lift truck industry, where customers often operate 24/7. BHBW empowers me to do my job as a field technician to the best of my ability, and I feel that the company values my contribution. I joined BHBW as an apprentice technician in 2001, and haven’t looked back."

"BHBW has consistently given me opportunities for growth over the past 17 years – both on a personal and a professional level. I’m proud of what I’ve achieved and am motivated to do my best every day. Working for a company with such good benefits also provides great peace of mind."

"I service, repair, and maintain our short-term-rental forklifts in Boksburg. BHBW took me on as an Apprentice and enabled me to qualify as a Diesel Mechanic that can now, in turn, pass on my skills and knowledge to new apprentices. My goal is to use the opportunities given to me to be one of the best Technicians BHBW has trained."
