Sun King expansion in African technology markets

Overview

Sun King is expanding its product offerings and manufacturing footprint across Africa, moving beyond its core off-grid solar energy business into consumer technology and advanced solar systems.

In Kenya, the company has entered the smartphone market by launching the EZ 3 and EZ 3 Pro models. These devices are assembled at Sun King’s manufacturing facility in Tatu City, Kiambu, which has an annual capacity of 700,000 units. To increase accessibility, the company is utilizing its existing pay-as-you-go (PAYG) solar financing infrastructure, allowing consumers to purchase phones through small daily installments.

Simultaneously, Sun King is growing its presence in Nigeria by expanding its solar inverter range and launching PowerFreeze, a solar-powered freezer. The company’s PowerHub portfolio now includes scalable systems ranging from 2.2 kVA to 30 kVA to support various needs, from small households to large-scale facilities such as schools and clinics.
