The scope in the transport and logistics industry is varied – from a one-man show using a small truck to transport goods and offer services, to a fleet of transport vehicles which travel the length and breadth of South Africa’s roads.
Road transportation includes commuter transport from taxis to bus transportation.
It can be a tough industry and there are many threats facing transport businesses but if you get it right, you can build a successful business.
Forecasts indicate that the demand for freight transport will grow in Southern Africa by between 200% and 250% over the 15 to 20 years. Some corridors, (high volume transport routes that connect major centres), such as the corridors between Gauteng and Cape Town (which amount to 50% of all corridor transport) will increase even faster.
The markets are on the move: due to advancing globalisation, declining trade barriers and an increasingly mobile workforce, the transport and logistics industry continues to enjoy above-average growth. And by expanding our service offerings both upstream and downstream, our transport and logistics service business unit is also becoming a master of our own supply chain – both forward and backward. As international growth through acquisitions, joint ventures and alliances are also reshaping the industry, we continue to invest in new corporate strategies and processes so as to better service our customers.
