Kingfisher Freight Services,
a member of the Global
Logistics Associates network, was
named ‘Member of the Year’ at
the association’s annual general
meeting in Paris recently.
“It is an honour for a South
African company to be nominated
for such a prestigious award. We
are fortunate that we are not only
a global logistics provider but
also a strong regional African
service provider,” said Kingfisher
managing director, Alwyn Nel.
“We will continue to develop new
infrastructure and service facilities
to meet our partners’ and clients’
demands,” he added.
Nel told FTW that Kingfisher’s
footprint in Africa was continuing
to grow. “We are expanding
into territories that have largely
not been serviced by logistics
operators,” he said. “Logistics
opportunities are continually
developing on the continent as
businesses seek new source markets
for their exports.
“Our representation in these
areas, which allows us to create
tailor-made solutions, has helped
us to grow market share,” said Nel.
