Our Services

What We Can Do For You

Air Freight

When speed and certainty matter, IPL manages global air cargo end-to-end—covering time‑critical, high‑value, oversized, and consolidated shipments.

We plan secure routings via trusted carriers, balance transit times with cost, and manage all export/import documentation to keep freight moving.

Our team oversees the process from pickup to final hand‑over, coordinating with airline operations and customs agents, and keeping you updated with proactive status reporting.

Whether you need charter, just‑in‑time, or consolidated options, we align to your production schedules and inventory windows while maintaining transparency and compliance at every checkpoint.

Ocean Freight

IPL provides reliable ocean solutions across FCL, LCL, break‑bulk, and project cargo.

We build realistic timelines, align cargo readiness with vessel schedules, and manage the paperwork that keeps bookings firm and cargo visible throughout the voyage.

Our operators engage early with suppliers and carriers to minimize roll‑overs, reduce demurrage risk, and protect your total landed cost.

Where third‑party verifications are required, we coordinate with Intertek, SGS, Bureau Veritas, and Port Authorities to streamline pre‑export and arrival steps and avoid avoidable delays.

Road Freight

Our road freight services are designed around one priority, your business needs. We know that every delivery plays a vital role in keeping your operations running smoothly, which is why we focus on providing reliable, cost-effective, and hassle-free transport solutions.

From small consignments to large volumes, we offer flexible options that give you control and peace of mind. Whether it’s nationwide distribution or cross-border deliveries, our team ensures your cargo arrives safely and on time, with full visibility throughout the journey.

By partnering with us, you gain more than just transport, you gain a logistics partner committed to saving you time, reducing complexity, and adding value to your supply chain.

With IPL, you can focus on growing your business while we take care of moving it forward.

AOG Logistics

Our dedicated 24/7 desk mobilizes AOG (Aircraft on Ground) recovery with the speed and precision aviation demands. We manage urgent charters, on‑airport coordination, and last‑leg deliveries with full operational oversight and constant communication.

Shipments commonly include engines, hydraulic systems, avionics modules, precision tooling, and other critical components that cannot wait.

Movements are planned to protect integrity in transit (including appropriate crating and vehicle selection) and to ensure immediate availability at destination with ground crews and engineering teams briefed in advance.

We focus on rapid turnaround, regulatory compliance, and clear accountability from origin through final hand‑over.

Customs Clearance

We offer full‑service customs management for imports and exports across South Africa and the Region HS Classification, Permit Coordination, Tariff Evaluation, and Direct Liaison with Border, Port, and Inspection Authorities.

Our approach reduces the risk of stops and queries by getting documents right the first time and communicating early when exceptions arise.

Whether your cargo is standard, high‑value, or specialized, we build the correct entry profile and keep stakeholders aligned to shorten dwell times and eliminate unnecessary costs.

Procurement & Sourcing

IPL simplifies multi‑supplier, multi‑country sourcing with a model designed for control and visibility. We consolidate demand, standardize specifications where possible, and ensure alignment with your internal policies and external regulations delivering quality assurance, cost discipline and traceability from RFQ to receipt.

Cold‑chain & food logistics: We operate a freezer trailer for the transport of frozen goods and maintain a food‑grade warehouse to support the consolidation of food consignments before export.

This enables SKU level control, efficient load planning, and fewer hand‑offs especially valuable for FMCG and hospitality supply chains.

Combined with our freight and customs teams, you get a single, accountable partner across procurement, consolidation, and cross‑border execution.

Your gateway to global supply chains.
