On the 8th of September 2011, BUK Truck Parts signed a memorandum of understanding with EquipXP, an American company based in Houston, Texas, to market, sell and distribute heavy duty construction, mining, agriculture, hospital equipment and parts to the Zambian Industry.

The signing ceremony was held at the plush offices of BUK in Lusaka and officials from the Zambia Development Agency (ZDA), Zambia Institute of Marketing (ZIM) and members of the press were represented at the ceremony. The USA embassy economic attaché Mr Phil Nervig and the president of the American Chambers of Commerce in Zambia Mr Greg Merchand were also present at the event.

BUK managing Director Mr Benjamin Katubiya described the signing of the memorandum of understanding between the two companies as a way of strengthening the ties between Zambia and the United States of America and enhancing and promoting trade between the two countries.

The USA embassy economic attaché Mr Phil Nervig said that the commercial relationship between the USA and Zambia has been growing since the AGOA forum and that the partnership between BUK and EquipXP is building on strengthening that relationship.
