Reliper

What Reliper does

Reliper is a privately held Chilean industrial supply company founded in 1995 and headquartered in Antofagasta, specializing in products, manufacturing, and embedded services for the mining sector. Its core offering spans lighting, industrial safety equipment (wheel chocks, cable protectors, beacons), lead-calcium and deep-cycle batteries, hand and power tools (including Makita), abrasives, adhesives, welding supplies, and other MRO consumables. The company complements distribution with an in-house fabrication facility in Quilicura, Santiago, producing custom metric bolts (DIN 931-933 up to M80), nuts, anchors, washers, studs, and galvanizing services, and operates as the Chilean distributor of the Grainger catalog.

Reliper makes money through a mix of one-time product sales and recurring service contracts. Its three signature services — Stockless (on-site warehouse administration with billing on consumption), Toolshop (on-site tool supply and administration), and Bodega Móvil (mobile warehouse for maintenance campaigns) — are delivered by qualified personnel embedded at client sites under multi-year contracts. Pricing is quote-based across products and services, with no public list prices. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting Chilean and Peruvian mining operators, supported by an e-commerce storefront, electronic catalogs, and a physical footprint of seven Chilean branches (Antofagasta, Calama, Copiapó, Iquique, Santiago, Concepción) plus two Peruvian offices (Ilo, Lima).
