LEMAN’s growing cooperation with African Logistic Service (ALS) in South Africa is opening new opportunities across international markets. The partnership demonstrates how local expertise and strong relationships help us connect customers to logistics solutions around the world.
South Africa is an important gateway to regional and international trade. For businesses moving goods to and from the country, reliable logistics depends on local knowledge, strong connections and the ability to navigate different markets.
At LEMAN, we continue to strengthen our international capabilities through close cooperation with trusted local partners. Our growing relationship with African Logistic Service (ALS) in South Africa is a good example of how these partnerships create opportunities beyond individual countries.
From South Africa to a broader global partnership
Our cooperation with ALS initially developed through LEMAN’s German business. Following closer collaboration and a visit to South Africa earlier this year, the relationship has expanded across our global organisation.
Today, the partnership also involves our LEMAN teams in the United States and China, working together with ALS on air and ocean freight opportunities involving South Africa. By combining the capabilities of LEMAN’s own offices and global network with ALS’s local expertise, we can strengthen our services across these trade lanes and explore opportunities in additional markets.
What started as a relationship involving one LEMAN market has become a broader international partnership, connecting expertise and capabilities across several countries.
Local expertise makes a global difference
For customers, the value of a strong international network goes beyond geographical coverage. It is about having access to people who understand local conditions, know the markets and can help identify the right logistics solutions.
By combining the local expertise of partners such as ALS with LEMAN’s global network, we can support international shipments, strengthen coordination across markets and explore new transport opportunities for our customers.
Our cooperation in South Africa reflects our broader approach to international logistics: building lasting relationships, connecting people across borders and turning local expertise into global opportunities.
