Reopening of CT office a strategic move

The freight system specialist Compu-Clearing reappeared on the business stage in the Western Cape last year after a lengthy absence, and MD Mario Acosta-Alarcon described it as “of high strategic importance in the national context”. So much so, he added, that Compu-Clearing had been able to double its training sessions compared to previous years, had acquired numerous new clients (including such power-houses as Damco and Langeberg & Ashton), and expected to triple the number of employees on this location this financial year. Acosta-Alarcon described the re-opening of the Cape Town office as an “event met with great excitement from all the Compu- Clearing base community and prospective clients alike”. “We opened it with the launch of a trade-and-track, Web-based system – http://www.compuclearing. co.za/ProductDetail. aspx?productid=4 – during which all clients were invited to attend presentations,” he told FTW. Also, he described the new administrative centre at Airport Industria as being equipped with a state-of-the-art training room and fitted with video conferencing equipment. “This,” said Acosta-Alarcon, “enables us to provide face-to-face as well as internet-based training.”
