Duckhams Oils Pens Partnership Deal to Expand Its Marketing Network in Indonesia

A new distribution partnership in Central Java has extended Duckhams Oils' network in Indonesia, one of Southeast Asia's largest automotive markets. PT Grande Bahana Nusa Semarang, part of GBN Group, a major national distributor of lubricants and automotive products, has become the authorised Duckhams distributor for the region.

The agreement was signed at a ceremony held at GBN's headquarters, attended by business colleagues, academics and media representatives. Mr Hendrik, Managing Director of PT Indonesia Lubricant Energy and master distributor of Duckhams in Indonesia, signed alongside Mr Raveldho, President Director of PT Grande Bahana Nusa Semarang.

The partnership builds on Duckhams' existing presence in Indonesia and forms part of the brand's wider push into Southeast Asian markets, which had also included SIRIM product certification for its two-wheeler range in neighbouring Malaysia the previous month. Indonesia's scale of vehicle ownership, spanning both motorcycles and passenger cars, makes the country a significant growth opportunity for international lubricant brands, and the Central Java deal gives Duckhams a dedicated distribution partner in one of the country's most populous regions.

The signing came as Duckhams continued to expand its international footprint following Zuber Issa CBE's 2025 investment in the brand, alongside its UK retail growth through EG On The Move, Screwfix and other channels.
