About Us

Commercial vehicle load body specialists since 1980, engineering for the fleets of tomorrow.

Who we are

Engineering load bodies for South Africa’s commercial fleets

M&P Bodies is a leading manufacturer of premium commercial vehicle load bodies, specialised bodies and trailers. From five factories on Tarry Road, Alrode South, we design, build and fit out bodies for every segment of the commercial vehicle market.

Every body starts with the application. Using 3D design and advanced mass-distribution packages, we tailor each build to its chassis and its load for optimal fitment and weight distribution, then manufacture it with skilled personnel and laser-cutting technology to strict NRCS control standards.

Our direction

Building for the fleets of tomorrow

Our vision

To be South Africa’s partner of choice for commercial vehicle load bodies, setting the benchmark for quality, compliance and value across the industry.

Our mission

To deliver load bodies, specialised vehicles and trailers that are engineered for their application, built to the highest standards and fitted out in-house, so our customers get a road-ready vehicle from a single supplier.

Our commitment

To keep investing in design, technology and skills, and to push boundaries with every build, so the vehicles we deliver work harder and last longer for the businesses that rely on them.
