In a strategic move to strengthen its authorized dealer network for TotalEnergies lubricants, Star Oil Tchad formalized a groundbreaking partnership with Zone Auto. The signing ceremony unfolded on August 8, 2026, at the premises of the Al Mahri Group in N’Djamena’s 4th arrondissement, gathering key decision-makers from both organizations.

Zone Auto steps into premium automotive solutions

Speaking during the event, Mr. Annadif Alfattah, founder and managing director of Zone Auto, emphasized the company’s commitment to going beyond mere retail. « Our mission is to provide motorists with reliable, accessible lubricants and tires that meet the highest quality standards », he stated. He highlighted the growing concern over counterfeit oils and reconditioned fluids in the market, stressing the need to offer traceable, certified products that protect vehicle engines and ensure driver safety.

With this collaboration, Zone Auto now joins the exclusive circle of authorized TotalEnergies lubricant dealers in Chad. This partnership represents more than a commercial agreement—it is a pledge to uphold quality, combat substandard products, and build lasting trust among Chadian motorists. « This alliance demonstrates our shared vision of excellence and our dedication to elevating automotive service standards across the country », Alfattah noted.

He extended his gratitude to the Star Oil Tchad team for their confidence and unwavering support throughout the partnership process, also acknowledging the company’s leadership for championing the availability and accessibility of authentic TotalEnergies lubricants throughout Chad.

Star Oil Tchad reinforces its exclusive distribution network

Mr. Sérigne Momar Dieye, CEO of Star Oil Tchad, underscored the significance of the company’s exclusive distribution rights for TotalEnergies lubricants in Chad. « As the sole authorized distributor, we bear the responsibility of ensuring product authenticity, traceability, and availability across the nation », he explained. He clarified that this exclusivity guarantees that all lubricants distributed under the TotalEnergies brand are sourced through official, controlled channels.

With Zone Auto now an official dealer, vehicle owners—whether private motorists, motorcyclists, transport professionals, or fleet operators—will have easier access to a full range of authentic, high-performance TotalEnergies lubricants tailored to their specific needs. « This initiative is particularly crucial in a market where counterfeit products, recycled oils, and unregulated supply chains pose serious risks to both engines and consumers », Dieye emphasized.

He added that Zone Auto was selected for its strong customer proximity, robust commercial positioning, and commitment to maintaining the highest standards in storage, sales, and product promotion. Star Oil Tchad will support the new partner through exclusive supply agreements and comprehensive commercial and technical guidance. « Beyond distributing products, this partnership reflects our commitment to empowering local businesses that help elevate market quality and service excellence », he said.

Dieye invited other professionals who prioritize quality, authenticity, traceability, and customer service to explore becoming authorized dealers in the TotalEnergies lubricant network.
