A freight partner
Freight done
the South African Way
Ja-nee. Ag shame. Howzit. We are South African, through and through.
What started here in 1981 now reaches into Europe, giving you a local team with global connections and more than 45 years of experience to get your freight where it needs to go.
We plan, execute and coordinate your freight by sea, air and road, now with rail and waterways too, thanks to our office in the Netherlands. Our team takes care of everything from Customs Compliance and Marine Insurance to the details in between.
Need more than freight forwarding? Our Contract Logistics department can take care of your supply chain from planning and warehousing to inventory management, distribution and final delivery.
Our specialities include Wine & Liquid Bulk, Agriculture, Dangerous Goods and Project Cargo. But really, we can ship anything, anywhere.
What working with a
Homegrown
partner gets you
Real Local Understanding
Communicate with South Africans who understand that Just-Now, Now-Now and Naa-Now are not the same.
A Partner who Sticks with You
Privately owned and independently minded, with our executives involved in the business day-to-day.
Big Enough to Deliver, Small Enough to Care
More than 340 people across our offices, but still a team where you deal with people, not a call centre.
Reach Beyond our Borders
Local branches in Joburg, Cape Town, Durban, Gqeberha and Paarl, plus offices in the Netherlands serving as a gateway into Europe.
Decades of Experience
Founded in 1981, Megafreight has been moving freight and handling customs clearance for over 45 years.
SIES
to sloppy standards
We take our standards seriously. Thankfully, our clients do too.
