A strategic milestone for Conical Technologies

June 2025 News

Conical Technologies has been appointed as the exclusive distributor in Southern Africa for Mibbo, a manufacturer of a wide range of products for the automation industry. On 5 May 2025, the company had the honour of welcoming Lincen Zhang, CEO of the Mibbo Group, along with Mr. Chenglong Yao, the sales manager for Europe. Their visit marked the beginning of an important new chapter in growth and expansion for Conical Technologies within the Southern African industrial automation sector.

The initial meeting with the Mibbo leadership was not only productive but also highlighted a shared vision for innovation and collaboration. Throughout the week, further strategic discussions reinforced the potential of this partnership. Mibbo is a global leader in industrial automation solutions with a diverse product portfolio that includes solid state relays, push buttons, intermediate relays, sensors, isolation modules and power supplies. These offerings are a perfect complement to Conical Technologies’ high-quality, cutting-edge solutions for its clients in the industrial automation sector.

According to Conical Technologies, this partnership is not just a distribution agreement, it represents a synergy of two companies aligned in values and technological ambition. As industries across southern Africa continue to modernise and automate, the availability of Mibbo’s products through the company will empower engineers and manufacturers with reliable, efficient and innovative tools.

Conical is excited about the road ahead and looks forward to working closely with the Mibbo Group to grow its markets, support its customers and lead the charge in industrial automation.
