Waka was formed in 2003 to manufacture CNC routed souvenir products.

The focus soon moved to assisting other businesses to purchase routers and software and learn to use them, with the establishment of the Techno dealership in 2004.

Since then we have added representation of other machine brands and cutting tools and broadened the range of software to meet specific customer requirements.
