Why road freight

Transporting goods by road is by far the most economical distribution option in South Africa. Our country’s national road network is expansive, accommodating haulage from port to inland industrial hubs and metropolitan areas.  This is especially important when you consider that major economic hubs such as Johannesburg, Pretoria and Bloemfontein are landlocked cities.  

Road freight is ideally suited to service the agricultural, manufacturing, and wholesale industries. Numerous truck models are designed to carry a variety of materials and goods. Trucks can also be customised to carry specialised equipment and high-value commodities.
