History


The Colombian motorcycle market had been dominated by Japanese, European, and regional (Brazil, Chile) manufacturers. Noting this, a group of Colombian businessmen formed an association on 16 April 2004 to purchases Chinese technology for motors, chassis, and economical designs.[1][2]


Present activities


In the seven years following their founding, AKT came to capture 15% of the Colombian market.[3] As of 2012 it is one of the top five motorcycle brands in Colombia, and sold 80,000 motorbikes in 2011, of 510,000 sold nationwide.[4]

AKT imports motorcycles from Chinese[5] and Taiwanese factories such as Loncin Holdings, Qjiang Motors and SYM Motors as knock-down kits, then assembles them in a local Colombian factory.

In January 2012 AKT became a sponsor of the Colombian first division soccer team Santa Fe Corporación Deportiva.[6]
