South Africa has always had a robust demand for automobile spare parts, and a sluggish supply has sometimes kept this demand waiting. DB Autoshop is a brand new, 2016 venture that aims to tap into this demand by providing a timely supply of auto replacement parts and spares at competitively low prices. DB Autoshop is set to sell auto parts sourced directly from the manufacturers to the South African market at competitively low prices

To tell you something about me, I am Dhananjay Bedekar, one of the founders of DB Autoshop. I have a cumulative experience of over 42 years in the automotive industry. My expertise in automotive mechanics spans a wide range of automobiles, from small cars, sedans and hatchbacks, to commercial vehicles like trucks and buses and even heavy-duty construction vehicles. I have worked at all levels of the playing field. Like most old-school TATA employees, I started off by getting my hands dirty on the shop floor and then made my way up the corporate ladder with dedication, integrity and hard work. This was before I called it quits in 2015.

But you know what they say, you can get the grease off a man’s shirt and hands, but you can’t get it out of his blood. If they don’t say it, they certainly should; for that is exactly what happened with me. The very birth of DBAutoshop stemmed from the love of all things automotive that just would not leave the Bedekars (all of us Bedekars, not just me). It stemmed from the very need to stay linked and connected to the automotive industry, an industry that practically gave our family everything.

So, yes, ours is a family venture. Expect us to give it our all, considering we have given it our name too! We want you to encounter honesty, integrity, genuine helpfulness, great service, and low prices from this notoriously supplier-friendly industry for a change.
