What selmec comserv does

Comserv Moçambique Lda is a Mozambique-based infrastructure management services company operating across three core verticals: telecommunications infrastructure maintenance, energy and power generation, and HVAC systems. The company maintains over 2,300 telecom facilities nationwide — anchored by a long-standing maintenance relationship with Vodacom Mozambique that has run continuously since 2003 — covering base stations, data centers, transmission equipment, RF systems, and tower infrastructure. It is also a certified dealer for Cummins, AGG, and Perkins generators and the national distributor for Dunham & Bush and TCL HVAC brands, giving it equipment supply capability alongside its service operations.

The company's revenue model blends long-term managed-services contracts (telecom infrastructure maintenance, recurring HVAC servicing) with project-based work (HVAC installations for hotels and hospitals, rural electrification and microgrid projects, generator rental and supply). Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales targeting telecom operators, hotels, hospitals, and commercial facilities, supported by three operations offices in Maputo, Beira, and Nampula plus distributed technical teams. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.

Comserv traces its origin to Selmec, founded in South Africa in 1998 to service Vodacom's Northern Border base stations. It expanded into Mozambique in 2003 after winning the Vodacom Mozambique GSM contract, was renamed Comserv Moçambique Lda in 2006, and underwent ownership transitions in 2011-2012 — Intelec Holdings (Mozambique) acquired 30%, then Motseng Investment Holdings (South Africa) acquired the remaining 70%, making Motseng the majority owner. The company currently operates with 264+ employees and is led under this South African-Mozambican cross-border ownership structure.
