About Us
Who Are We
Maska is a company with
a vision, committed to promptly and efficiently answer the needs of our
stakeholders, suppliers and customers. From the birth of our parent company
Maska Limited in 1990, our family has grown to include Maska USA, Maska South
Motors and Service Centre. Over the last twenty years, we built ourselves an
outstanding reputation on the automotive, industrial and hardware sectors, as
wholesale distributing and marketing experts. Locally, regionally and
internationally, Maska Limited and its subsidiaries take pride in providing
unparalleled service.
Our History
MASKA LIMITED was
established in 1990 by the Managing Director, Mr. Mukesh Rampersad and his
wife, Sabitree. The company began its operations in South Trinidad and quickly
became one of the most successful wholesale distributors of automotive and
hardware products in the Caribbean.
It is a market- driven
philosophy that makes Maska Limited a leading distributor of products to
professionals and companies in the automotive and industrial sectors. Today,
more than twenty years and three companies later, it still values family,
respect, reliability and striving for excellence that guide its operations.
Originally located in the historical and industrial city of San Fernando in
south Trinidad, Maska Limited still sits in the birth-place and now
magnificently occupies six acres of land.
MASKA LIMITED (1990) is
a wholesale and retail marketing and distribution company servicing the
automotive, industrial and hardware sectors. Our marketing services include
innovative merchandising, market building and research. We embrace the
challenge of taking a product with minimal performance and charting a course
for its distribution growth. As a distribution company, we house our five
thousand automobile parts (new and rebuilt), products and accessories
automotive chemicals as well as industrial equipment and supplies in our
well-stocked warehouse at our south truck road location. On the off chance that
we do not have it, we will source it for you.
MASKA USA (2003) In February 2003, Maska Limited welcomed a new
company to the family- Maska USA. Located in the heart of downtown Miami, Maska
USA facilitates the dispatch of international products throughout the
Caribbean. As a source and supply company, Maska USA will source the required
product from wherever it is, at the quantities specified and then supply to the
indicated market. Currently, Maska USA provides the international market
with commercial buses, industrial tools, automotive products, safety equipment,
medical supplies and food products. Maska USA has a wide access to close-out
merchandise.
MASKA SOUTH MOTORS (2006) In response to the
growing demand for the premium new car dealership, Maska Limited launched a new
division- Maska South Motors in 2006. This new car dealership is housed on the
same compound as Maska Limited in South Trinidad. In 2008, Maska South Motors
established a State of the Art Service Centre where qualified and experienced
mechanics take pride in fully and competently servicing vehicles.
Since its conception,
Maska South Motors has scored a number of impressive firsts. We were the first
to introduce right-hand drive American vehicles to Trinidad and Tobago. Some of
these vehicles were the internationally renowned Hummers. In 2011, seeking to reduce its carbon
footprint, Maska once again took the automotive lead and shipped down a line of
CNG vehicles. Compressed natural gas (CNG). CNG powered vehicles are a major
component of the Ministry of Education of Energy and Energy Affairs Renewable
Energy Agenda in Trinidad and Tobago.
We also offer Hybrid
vehicles in hopes of improving the environment and fuel economy. These hybrid
vehicles are well known for being fuel efficient cars with limited expenditure.
These vehicles uses more than one form of on-board energy to achieve momentum.
This means that it contains both an internal- combustion engine and a fuel tank
as well as an electric motor and a battery pack. Hybrids utilizes their
electric bits to collect and reuse energy that are usually wasted in
traditional cars making them gasoline burning machines.
In addition to being an
environmentally conscious company, Maska South Motors also had the best
interest of their customers at heart, as CNG is tremendously beneficial to maintaining
the well-being of the vehicle, due to its non-corrosive nature. It is known to
promote longer engine life and directly reduce maintenance costs. Cheaper than
gasoline, CNG rounds out its many offerings, by saving drivers on fuel costs.
Maska South Motors
continues to find ways to bring optimum automotive products and services to its
customers.
