BUSINESS HISTORY                                                                                                                                  

 

DINAMICA AUTOMOTRIZ DE MEXICO S.A. is known today as the DINAMEX Group, which was incorporated in November 1962 under the corporate name Dinámica Automotriz de México S.A., being one of the pioneering companies in manufacture of automotive parts in the country that was established as a result of a decree issued by the then President of the Republic, Mr. Adolfo Lopez Mateos.

 

Making a little history, we may say that subject's first facilities, a warehouse of a little more than 2,000 m were located on Avenida Ceylan, in Colonia Vallejo, and in those facilities, it started manufacturing the Mechanical Fuel Pump (Screw) and spare parts for aftermarket. It was time when the country was coming out from the 1950's economic crisis of the austere government of Ruiz Cortines.

 

In 1966, Dinámica Automotriz de México established an agreement with the American company Kem Manufacturing Inc. to trade the mechanical fuel pump under the Kem brand. This was how Kem de México was established.

 

By the end of 1967, due to its high quality manufacturing, Kem de México was chosen as a supplier of the original equipment for the assembly plant of VAM (Vehículos Automotores Mexicanos), a manufacturer of brands Rambler, Gremlin, Javelin, Lerma and Pacer. For years the relationship was fruitful until 1986 when the assembling plant stopped its operations. At the same time, Dinamex Group was a supplier of the original equipment of mechanical fuel pump to GM and Ford until the technology advanced much that there was a need for a change.

Kem de México continues today to manufacture this product for the spare part market. A short time later, Kem de México, meeting demands from the market, developed the sealed fuel pump that is sold today covering all of vehicle park transiting in Mexico.

 

In 1970, Dinámica Automotriz de México moved to a functional facility in the town of Atizapan under space reasons.

 

As the time passed, and overcoming difficult tests, in 1985 Dinámica Automotriz de México developed the technology of electrical fuel pump.

 

In 1988, Kem de México introduced into the market an innovative and state-of-the-art product: the line of wires for spark plugs Kem Mag Plus, the first line of pure silicon and with magnetic suppression in the country, which eliminates possible interferences with the car electrical and audio systems. It introduced the Lancer by Kem wire line of EPDM material.

 

In 1994, Dinámica Automotriz de México established an association with Tomco Inc., a leading company in its line of business in North America, and this resulted in the establishment of Tomco de México. From that date, Dinámica Automotriz de México was known as Dinamex Group.

 

In 1999, Spartan by Kem was created as a new line of ignition parts, including coils, condensers, caps, etc.

 

In 2006, it was acquired the electrical division of ECHLIN MEXICO (AFFINIA), whose products are distributed in Mexico, USA, and international market.

 

Subject is a member of the DINAMEX GROUP, which is also comprised of companies engaged in manufacture and distribution of automotive products.
