A major courier operator in South Africa is boosting its logistics capabilities by automating a new distribution centre in Isando, Kempton Park (Johannesburg) to handle rising parcel volumes and support faster, more reliable delivery services.
The facility will serve as both a central hub for the company’s network and a last-mile depot, improving freight flows across its service area. Built with a focus on scalability, the new automation system is designed to grow with future demand and allow the courier to handle larger volumes with greater agility.
The technology partner selected to deliver the solution has integrated end-to-end automated sortation and material handling systems tailored to the company’s operational footprint. The design allows real-time tracking of inbound and outbound items and provides full visibility across the parcel flow — enhancing throughput and accuracy in a market where customer expectations for speed and service reliability are growing fast.
Executives say the automated centre will bolster the courier’s ability to scale its operations, improve service quality and adapt quickly to changing market conditions in South Africa’s competitive last-mile delivery landscape.
