Dedicated Superlinks connect Windhoek and Gauteng depots

Having offices and staff on the

ground in Namibia is critical

to keep freight moving smoothly,

says Stephen Segal, divisional

director of Value Logistics.

The company has established

Value Logistics Namibia, which is

able to offer national distribution

within the country with its fleet

of vehicles.

Dedicated

Superlink

Partech vehicles

run between

their Windhoek

depot and

Value City in

Gauteng,

with

additional

vehicles

available

during peak periods.

These services in

Namibia dovetail into Value

Logistics’ fleet of over 4 300

vehicles and forklifts and

350 000 sqm of warehousing

space in South Africa.

Value’s integrated IT

network, labelling and bar

coding facilities, routing,

scheduling and 24-hour

vehicle and parcel tracking and

management are also integrated

into the Namibian operation.

The costeffectiveness

of shipping

from Value’s

operations in

Durban, Cape

Town and Port

Elizabeth is

also part of

the service

offering. “There

is enormous

potential for

South African exporters in the

Namibian and neighbouring

markets because of their

reliance on imported fast

moving consumer goods,

electronic goods, vehicle spares

and manufacturing equipment,”

he says.
