THE INTEGRATED LOGISTICS GROUP

Deeply rooted in well over a century of logistics, Schenker Logistics’ rich heritage has provided the impetus that positions us in the top three global logistics companies in the 21^st century – and among the top logistics companies in South Africa.

At the cutting edge of logistics technology, our bedrock philosophies remain unchanged: reliability, predictability, flexibility, cost containment, asset security – and the personal touch. Vision, flair and two-way interaction characterise our partnerships with client companies of all sizes. We pride ourselves on being realistic, entrepreneurial and agile.

We align with the business strategies of our customers large and small, becoming a fully integrated extension of their operations with one party responsibility. Via a hi-tech plug & play vehicle, we can integrate into customers’ ICT systems – from production to distribution – providing supply chain visibility and strategic reporting capabilities. We manage KPI’s and give our customers access to real time information 24/7.

Schenker Logistics exists to enhance customer competitiveness, from return on investment to satisfied customers – and ultimately shareholder value. We combine 135 years of global experience and international collaboration with hands-on local capability, to boost our clients’ competitiveness. The results speak for themselves.
