Forwarding Network Bolsters Logistics Services Across South Africa

KEMPTON PARK, South Africa — August 24, 2025 — Forwarding Network, a South African freight forwarder established in 1993, has expanded its South African air freight footprint with dedicated city pages and corridor coverage to make time-critical transport easier for businesses operating between major metros. The updates complement the company’s multi-modal service portfolio across air, sea, road and rail, alongside forwarding, courier, and customs solutions. (fnetwork.co.za)

What’s new

  • Dedicated city pages for air services, including Cape Town, Johannesburg, Pretoria, Port Elizabeth, Kimberley, Bloemfontein, Polokwane, Nelspruit and Rustenburg, plus a focused Johannesburg–Cape Town corridor page to help shippers compare transit options and request quotes based on origin/destination. (fnetwork.co.za)

  • Clear, self-service navigation to core services (air, sea, road, rail, forwarding, courier, and customs), shipment tracking, and resources such as container types and trading conditions. (fnetwork.co.za)

Why this matters to South African shippers

  • Predictability and speed: Air freight remains the fastest option for urgent cargo and high-value goods; city-specific pages surface nearest-airport options and typical use cases to aid mode selection. (fnetwork.co.za)

  • Compliance clarity: Online guidance for customs processes helps importers/exporters plan documentation, duties/VAT, and timings in line with SARS requirements. (South African Revenue Service)

  • One partner, multiple modes: Consolidating air, sea, road and rail reduces hand-offs and supports route flexibility when schedules or capacity shift. (fnetwork.co.za)
