Boitumelo Moroe

From working within the corporate finance sector to owning Finches Motor Centre, a Bosch Car Service franchise in Kya Sand (“Bosch Car Service FMC”), Boitumelo Moroe has turned her entrepreneurial spirit into a thriving business.

As one of the few black women in South Africa to own a Bosch franchise, Moroe’s journey is a powerful story of resilience, ambition, and leadership in a male-dominated industry.

A Childhood Dream Turned Reality

Moroe’s entrepreneurial spirit was apparent from an early age. “From a young age, I fully understood the value of money and profit,” she recalls. “I was that schoolgirl always finding something to sell, from cupcakes to beads.”

However, like many, she initially pursued a traditional path, completing her BCom Economics degree and working in a corporate environment. Though she had a prestigious position with great benefits, her passion for entrepreneurship called her back. “The desire to set my own limits and to get out of my comfort zone propelled me to be an entrepreneur,” Moroe explains.

Amongst other thriving entities, today, she owns and manages Bosch Car Service FMC, a Bosch franchise that is redefining automotive care in Johannesburg North.

Setting the Bar High with Bosch

Located in Kya Sand, Bosch Car Service FMC offers comprehensive automotive solutions powered by Bosch’s cutting-edge technology. From diagnostics and electrical repairs to vehicle servicing and air conditioning maintenance, the franchise ensures world-class standards in every service it provides.

According to Moroe, partnering with Bosch was a deliberate decision: “Bosch is a name synonymous with excellence, quality and innovation, and I wanted my business to embody those same values.”

Bosch Car Service FMC specializes in:

  • Comprehensive Diagnostics using Bosch’s advanced tools for precision and reliability.
  • Engine Repairs and Services, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.
  • Air Conditioning Repairs, ensuring comfort and efficiency for drivers.
  • Brake Services, prioritizing safety with meticulous inspections and repairs.
  • Fleet Maintenance Solutions, offering tailored services to businesses.

Moroe emphasizes customer satisfaction as the cornerstone of the business. “Every car is treated as if it were our own,” she says.

Empowering Through Leadership

Beyond running a successful business, Moroe is also a trailblazer for women in the automotive industry. She serves as the Vice-Chairperson for the RMI MIWA Central Region Executive Committee and also serves on several committees of the RMI (Retail Motor Industry). She is a stern advocate for women leadership and empowerment. By mentoring young professionals and encouraging women to enter technical fields, she’s working to create opportunities for others.

“As a woman who is in leadership, I always challenge myself and others around me to say how do we create space for other women. It’s not enough to simply secure a seat at the table. We need to use our voices, share our experiences, and leverage our positions to create opportunities for other women. We need to continuously foster an environment where every women feels seen, heard and empowered to make her mark.” she says.

The Bosch Car Service FMC Promise

Bosch Car Service FMC is more than just a workshop – it’s a trusted partner for vehicle owners in Johannesburg North. Customers are greeted with professionalism, transparent pricing, and unparalleled expertise.

One loyal customer shared: “Finches Motor Centre isn’t just a repair center – it’s a place where you feel cared for as a person and a driver. Boitumelo and her team are incredible.”

Looking Ahead

As Boitumelo Moroe continues to grow her business, she remains focused on innovation, community impact, and delivering exceptional service. “I’m excited to see where this journey takes us next,” she says.
