Röhlig Grindrod's Longmeadow warehouse, equipped with internet connectivity, provides state-of-the-art service, says marketing officer Lia Liebenberg. The 5000 m² facility has inventory control system scanning equipment in place, as well as the latest alarm system and closed-circuit TV cameras that monitor 16 areas inside and out. Three electronic scales are installed, and dock levellers are in place at five loading bays, which can accommodate trucks from one-tonners to Super Links. 20ft to 40ft containers’ palletised or loose cargo can be packed and unpacked on site, while battery-powered forklifts can heft up to 4.5 tonnes. Already a variety of cargo has been handled at the facility, from building materials and vehicles to clothing and foodstuffs.
