Hino Improves Kenyan Customers Experience with the Brand
Hino continues to get even closer to its customers in Kenya in a bid to improve their experience.
That is why Hino Executive Vice-President Satoru Mori visited the country for four days (from September 28 to October) 2 to meet and engage with local customers of the brand.
Mr Mori listened to what Kenyan buyers of Hino trucks and buses really want – and took that information back to Japan where the brand is a top performer.
IMPRESSIVE PERFORMANCE IN JAPAN
For more than 40 years, Hino has consistently maintained the highest market share in Japan for medium duty and heavy duty trucks.
Year by year, it has also been growing its share of the light duty trucks in that market.
Overall, when combined with the Toyota Dyna’s market share, Hino is number one in the total trucks range.
The Japanese market is extremely demanding. Customers demand high levels of product quality and service.
In spite of this demand, Hino has managed to satisfy customers, winning the largest market share.
Hino’s impressive performance in the Japanese market is due to the reliability of the company’s product and its dealers’ expansive service network in Japan.

The visit by Hino executive vice president to Kenya is part of this drive to give customers total support – by listening to what they really want.
