Cross Trade

Moving products from one continent to another requires an in-depth knowledge of global trade. With new markets continually opening up, it often makes sense for South African companies to source products on one continent for use on another continent without the shipments passing through South Africa. This remote control service has inherent risks and capital outlay. Safcor Panalpina is ideally positioned to offer this cross trade service to South African and global clients.
