Michael TomeBusiness ReporterFARM implements manufacturer, Zimplow Holdings, is bullish about prospects for the last quarter of this year after a solid performance in the three months to September, driven by stable mineral prices, investments across the mining sector and renewed momentum in the Government-led infrastructure projects.In a trading update for the third quarter, the diversified industrial group said that the mining industry’s ongoing capital expenditure programmes, both in new ventures and expansions of existing operations, continued to drive demand for its machinery and equipment.Zimplow anticipates revenue growth from the seasonal demand for tractors and implements and small-scale farmers’ buying spares and equipment in the fourth quarter of 2025.The group projects increased demand for the MF200 series tractors, generator containers and tyres during the last quarter of this year.Stable and elevated prices for key minerals are also supporting stronger activity across the value chain, a development Zimplow believes will translate into improved order books in the final months of the year.The group noted that the resumption of major infrastructure projects by the Government has strengthened demand, particularly for earthmoving and construction-related equipment.This rebound in public works, after a slow first half of the year, is expected to stimulate sectors that align directly with Zimplow’s core business units.“The outlook for the last quarter of 2025 is optimistic owing to robust mineral prices, investment in new and existing mines and the resumption of the implementation of infrastructure projects by the Government,” said Zimplow group company secretary Mrs Sharon Mananganzira, in the quarterly trading update.
