Trusted by Spartan Manufacturers
& Global Supply Chains
From heavy machinery imports for Spartan factories to Isando food exports and Kempton Park medical device distribution — hear directly from the East Rand businesses and international partners who rely on Flexagon Freight.
"Our Spartan manufacturing plant imports heavy machinery from Germany and China quarterly. Flexagon manages the entire sea freight chain — from Hamburg or Shanghai to Durban, clearing at City Deep inland terminal, and coordinating abnormal load permits for final delivery to our factory. Their customs team’s knowledge of rebates on industrial equipment and handling of oversized cargo has eliminated transit delays. Two years, zero customs holds."
"We ship high‑value medical devices from the UK to our Kempton Park distribution hub. Flexagon handles the full air freight import from Heathrow to OR Tambo — including SAHPRA compliance documentation, bond store transfers, and secure final‑mile delivery to our Spartan warehouse. Their proactive communication across time zones and flawless documentation have made a complex supply chain completely seamless."
"Our Isando‑based food manufacturing company exports processed goods to Zambia and Nigeria. Flexagon manages our cross‑border road freight, including PPECB export certificates, AfCFTA certificates of origin, and coordination with transporters at the Spartan truck depot. Their AfCFTA tariff optimisation alone saved us 18% on Zambian import duties — and they handle all the documentation so we can focus on production."
"We operate a GDP‑certified pharmaceutical warehouse in Spartan and import temperature‑sensitive biologics from the Netherlands. Flexagon manages our cold chain air freight from Schiphol to OR Tambo — continuous temperature monitoring, GDP documentation, cold‑room handling at the airport, and temperature‑controlled final‑mile delivery. They’ve helped us pass three SAHPRA audits with zero transport‑related findings."
