Increased adoption of technology on the continent

Logistics software solutions

company Easyclear is

anticipating further growth

on the African

continent as

more southern

African

countries adopt

the customs

clearing portal,

ASYWORLD.

“We are eagerly

anticipating

the release of

ASYWORLD in

Namibia which

is currently in a

testing phase,” said Easyclear

general manager, Michael

Henning. He pointed out

that the revenue authorities

of Lesotho and Swaziland

had also recently adopted the

portal, which

is integrated

with the

Easyclear

solution.

“The

introduction of

these solutions

in the two

neighbouring

countries over

recent months

has not been

without

challenges, particularly in

Lesotho, where long border

delays have been experienced

since the launch in August this

year,” said Henning.

However, these challenges

are managed and mitigated

through a very close working

relationship forged with

the respective revenue

authorities and clients in

these countries, he added.

According to Henning,

it has been encouraging

to see the increased

adoption of new

technology on the

continent. “Improved,

integrated regional

systems are proven to

fast-track the movement

of goods across borders

and thus facilitate trade.
