Logistics operator adds self storage capacity

German Warehousing Logistics has expanded its portfolio to offer self storage units to its customers in the south of Johannesburg. The converted 20’ containers are based in a secure fenced-in area with full access to forklifts to facilitate loading and offloading. The company’s recent move to new premises created the additional capacity. “We wanted to go the extra mile for our customers who always need some space for the odds and ends they have," GHL’s Kay Sendel told FTW. In addition the company is looking for refrigerated warehousing which will be introduced later in the year. "We signed up a new contract that required cold storage and because of the limited availability of this type of special facility we came up with what we believe is a one-stop freight solution," Sendel added. Currently 20’ units are available with 40-footers to be added based on demand.
