Its National Domestic Road Haulage division provides a door-to-door service for palletised general cargo, machinery and equipment using a variety of truck tractor articulated vehicles, while the Over Border Africa division extends this service to all SADC countries through all dry ports, for imports and exports. An Abnormal Out-of- Gauge Heavy Haulage Division specialises not only in transporting cargo, but integrates the logistics chain – design, construction and assembly of vertical and horizontal loads – throughout Africa. Subsidiary companies within the group offer contract warehousing, film logistics and financial services for goods in transit and rolling stock insurance cover. Headquartered in Cape Town, the company has offices in Johannesburg and Lusaka, Zambia with an internet marketing office in Bath, United Kingdom and an associate office in Victoria, Australia. “We have forged longstanding strategic business relationships and alliances with other service providers, providing a seamless service to our clients,” said Kruyer.
