IMPERIAL Logistics member company, Truckafrica, an over border Logistics Service Provider (LSP) to a variety of mining and logistics companies across Africa has been awarded the 2011 Logistics Supplier of the Year by JSE-listed Bell Equipment for the third time and Gold Status for the tenth consecutive year.

To achieve Gold Status, Bell suppliers must meet the required standards for due date delivery, quality, cost, warranty, technical support and flexibility. “Specifically, suppliers must achieve and maintain an average of 80% or more on service deliveries over a 12-month period,” says Abrie de Swardt, IMPERIAL Logistics Marketing Director.
