Our aim is to assist our customers to remain focused on their core business. To help them to achieve this an accurate monitoring of their shipments is ensured from the moment the order is ready for shipment until the goods are delivered to their final destination. Tracking reports are provided to our customers on a regular basis in accordance with their personal requirements

Working pro-actively on a daily basis we can already anticipate on possible hick-ups and safeguard our clients from delays and related additional costs, in receiving their cargoes. We are also protecting our clients’ interests by carefully selecting the shipping lines not only on basis of lowest tariff but also considering other technical parameters such as reliable shipping schedules, transit time and container release conditions at both the departure and destination ports. Today’s global and volatile shipping industry requires a professional approach. That is what Freight Africa nv stands for.
