Proudly founded and owned by two qualified young Black women who are changing the face of automotive repair in South Africa.
Womech is a workshop that was established by two dynamic and enthusiastic young Black ladies who have realised the opportunities that exist in the industry. The business was born in concept in January 2017 and officially opened shop in October 2017.
The vision was conceived through the passion of the two mechanical expert sisters who are a qualified Diesel Mechanic and Auto Electrician. The two boast vast experience from exposure to the fleet needs and requirements of government departments and parastatals as well as small and large operational businesses.
Womech Mechanical Works Specialists is an automobile repair and maintenance company dealing in all makes of vehicles — including cars, trucks, fleet, buses and earth-moving equipment.
#WomensMonth: 'It's tough, but we can do it' — The Glomane sisters run an all-female car workshop in Secunda. Read the full article.
Alongside our mechanical workshop, Womech operates a dedicated spares shop to help motorists access vehicle parts and workshop essentials through a team they already trust.
Because the spares shop works closely with our technicians, customers benefit from practical guidance when identifying the parts needed for a repair. You can visit the shop for parts directly or let our workshop team coordinate what is required for your vehicle.
To promote the best quality services, promote economic growth and alleviate poverty, to be market driven and professional in all services offered — and to train at least 10 apprentices a year. Womech's vision is to make service provision extendable and to eventually establish a franchise of small mechanical repair outlets — something like a fast-food drive-through, for your car.
Our goal is delivering excellence in our workmanship — setting the tone for achieving the fastest turnaround time with the servicing of all vehicles and achieving a zero percentage come-back rate.
Our mechanics are well-trained and form part of our family. We take care of our customers as well as those who look after them. Our customers form the heart of our operation — all the directors are available for any complaints or concerns. We are here for you and your vehicle.
Two qualified sisters with a shared passion for motors, mechanical excellence and economic empowerment.

"I have seen the gap — being the feminine quality of being risk averse which has led to a need for Black female artisans to establish organisations of their own. The entrepreneurial bug has bitten me and I am excited for the next chapter." — D. Glomane
