What we run

Five services, one manifest.

Every shipment moves through the same chain of custody, whichever leg it's on.

FF-01

Freight Forwarding

Ocean · Air · Multimodal
We book and consolidate ocean and air freight in and out of South Africa's major ports, and manage the paperwork so nothing sits idle at origin.
CC-02

Customs Clearance

9 provinces
Licensed clearing agents at every South African port we operate through handle declarations, duty calculations, and inspections, so cargo doesn't wait on a desk.
XBT-03

Inter-Provincial Trucking

Company-owned fleet
Our trucks run scheduled routes on the N1, N3, and N4 corridors with GPS-tracked visibility from pickup to delivery, wherever in the country the route runs.
WD-04

Warehousing & Distribution

6 regional hubs
Bonded and non-bonded warehousing at each hub, with pick-pack-ship and last-mile distribution into secondary cities.
RF-05

Rail Freight

Standard gauge lines
Bulk and containerized rail options on the Cape gauge network, priced and scheduled alongside road options for the same route.
MH-06

Materials Handling

Forklift & yard equipment
Rental and operated forklifts, reach trucks, and yard equipment at each hub, so loading, staging, and cross-docking don't wait on a client's own fleet.
CV-07

Convenience & FMCG Distribution

High-frequency retail routes
Structured last-mile delivery for forecourts, independent retailers, and spaza-style outlets, built around consistent restocking rather than one-off drops.
