The Kingfisher was established in 1996 having acquired the fishing division from an old household name Kings Sports, known to generations of sportsmen and fishing enthusiasts alike. Our core business is wholesaling fishing tackle to all Retail stores throughout Southern Africa. Our product range is largely imported from all corners of the globe anchored by our exclusive distribution rights of the

famous brand of Daiwa rods and reels. Besides other popular international brands under the umbrella we have also developed very successful private labels under the Kingfisher brand. There are also a number of local manufacturers who rely on our infrastructure to market their wares. We’re very proud of our 1000 sqm Retail store attached to the main premises at 53 Hunter Street, Durban. Besides a wonderful array of fishing tackle catering for all, we have included stunning displays of Diving gear, Outdoor clothing and shoes. 60 personnel represent one big happy family of mixed cultures all passionate about fishing and driven to offer the highest level of service.

SHAD SEASON IS PEAKING!

When the shad are feeding hard, you need a spoon that delivers the distance, action, and strike-triggering flash to get the job done.

The Falcon Slim Bunker - the ultimate shad spoon for anglers who want to maximise every cast!

Whether you're fishing the rocks, beach, or estuary mouth, the Falcon Slim Bunker helps you cover more water and put more fish on the shore.

Don't let the season pass you by. Gear up and get amongst the action!
