CYMOT Hilltop Expo

Connect and Explore

On 18–19 July 2025, CYMOT hosted an exciting, reimagined event at its brand-new flagship store at Hilltop, Windhoek: the first-ever CYMOT CX Expo 2025. CX, short for Connect & Xplore, perfectly captured the spirit of the Expo, inviting visitors to do just that. Inside, the atmosphere was festive, buzzing with energy. The expo offered something for everyone: from outdoor enthusiasts and DIY lovers to automotive professionals and families, all eager to explore the latest tools, camping gear, automotive accessories, and lifestyle solutions that CYMOT is known for throughout Namibia.

The CX Expo invited visitors to explore, connect, and experience the very best of what CYMOT has to offer. From live product demonstrations to hands-on experiences, such as testing safety headgear in a soundproof booth, there was something to spark every curiosity. Exclusive expo specials made the experience all the more rewarding. Customers strolled through the spacious store aisles (the ceiling’s lights playfully decorated with paintbrushes and wheelbarrows), while additional stalls set up outside showcased an even wider variety of products, from power tools, industrial equipment,

to Thule baby strollers and sleek, modern bicycles. Along the way, customers could sip on Slowtown coffee and enjoy delicious treats from the aptly named Chill Zone, creating the perfect pause between discoveries.

The Expo also offered valuable opportunities for visibility, brand exposure, and networking, drawing in not only local businesses but also South African suppliers seeking to expand their presence in Namibia. Rogers Pillay, Africa Sales Development Manager at Burncrete, a specialist in rigging and lifting equipment, remarked, “This is a great opportunity to increase our exposure, especially since most of our clientele is based in Namibia.”

Whether you’re planning your next off-road adventure, preparing for a camping getaway, or taking on a new home project, this unique Expo proved to be the perfect place to start. At CYMOT, one is reminded once again that every journey becomes easier with the right gear, trusted expertise, and a community driven by a shared passion for exploration and innovation.
