Broad-based offering creates opportunities

STRATEGIC LOCATION is key to any warehousing
operation, and it’s one of the benefits that
Shipping & General Transport brings to the table,
in the view of MD Regan Moodley.
The company currently has three warehouses
conveniently located within 5 km of the City
Deep terminal.
“This makes our facility a cost effective
alternative when taking into account crosshaulage
charges,” says Moodley.
“Space is always an issue and most
warehousing outfits are purely a side offering to
the main course, which is the provision of cartage
and distribution which are far more lucrative.
“But the more infrastructure and equipment
that a company can provide, the more
opportunities there are to capitalise on spinoffs
which lead to added group revenue,” says
Moodley. And it’s a philosophy that’s worked for
the company.
“We recorded exceptional growth in 2007,
evidence that our clients are increasingly taking
advantage of our expertise and broad-based
service.”
