Lusaka groupage service launched

Forwarding African Transport Services (FATS) has launched a fortnightly roadfreight consolidation service to Lusaka. And according to CEO Caron Harris, plans are afoot to extend it to other destinations in Africa. “The launch of the service is a natural progression from our Full Container Load (FCL) service into African countries,” she said. “With our own bondstore and a partnership with a large unpack depot, there is no need to divert any cargo en route to Lusaka, as cargo can be kept in bond until dispatch,” she said.
