3 National Branches that Connect You to the World

Johannesburg
Afnet CC was formed in 1996, & was started primarily as a transport company, but has since expanded into the logistics solutions we now offer. From transport & warehousing to procurement, handling, packing & crating, we manage every detail – including trans-shipping, hazardous cargo, abnormal cargo & those extra requirements that matter most to you. Our comprehensive services are also tailored to meet the unique needs of our foreign-based clients.
With a consistent banking partner, remaining with the same bank since inception, & a reputation built on solid references, we maintain strict accounting practices while continually expanding our services & routes. A notable milestone was the expansion of our warehousing facilities in 2007, enabling us to accommodate growing client needs & increased tonnages.
Our steady growth since inception is a testament to our commitment to service & client loyalty. We look forward to continuing this trend, driven by our dedication to meeting your logistics needs
