Company History
Vuka brought EU-type-approved small scooters to South Africa with pricing and spares tailored to students and delivery use. The brand’s emphasis was dependable running—solid PDI, corrosion-aware hardware for coastal climates, and parts warehouses that kept fleets moving. While models were straightforward, the distribution focus turned value hardware into reliable transport, helping normalize scooters in car-centric environments with congested traffic and rising fuel costs.
