Seko: US-South Africa Links to Boost Growth
Project cargo firm Seko Logistics expects that stronger links between the U.S. and South Africa will drive logistics and breakbulk growth this year.
“The African Growth & Opportunity Act (AGOA) agreement between the U.S. and South Africa will create further growth potential for us and we are also collaborating with other SEKO offices globally to win more multi-national customers,” said Richard Mallabone, managing director of SEKO in South Africa.
Seko opened a new location in Cape Town in May last year, and regularly handles sea and airfreight traffic for clients in the electronic goods, automotive, food and beverage, textiles and building materials industries.
“2015 was an excellent year in which we enjoyed spectacular growth, taking a start-up business and turning it into a profitable venture within six months. During the first quarter of 2016 we have experienced consistent growth, despite tough trading conditions,” said Brian Wicht, director of SEKO in Cape Town.
Seko provides a suite of logistics services across the supply chain and operates more than 120 offices in 40 countries worldwide.
