East Rand warehouse will provide hub for sea and air

Early next year Katlego Global
Logistics will add a further
5 000 m2 of warehousing
capacity on the East Rand.
While no firm decision
has been made on the exact
location, MD Moses Maboi
confirmed last week that he
was looking at properties close
to the airport.
“The plan is to set up a
distribution centre for sea
and airfreight imports and
exports,” says Maboi.
Part of the motivation has
been a decision by four clients
to outsource their warehousing
to Katlego.
“We’ll do import unpacking
and export packing in the
warehouse and have increased
our guarantees to cater for
more import cargo,”
said Maboi.
Part of the import growth
has flowed from Katlego’s
membership of the worldwide
GFP network, an international
agency grouping for which
Katlego is the sole African
representative.
“It’s worked well for us,
resulting in additional revenue
from sales leads which have
enabled us to grow our
business.”
