LoadSmart, a website-based networking platform developed by PROSADC in cooperation with GMLS South Africa that deals with the needs of southern Africa’s freight transportation industry, provides a more lucrative solution to managing shipment and transport needs.

As a marketplace for networking transporters, logistic operators and freighters, the company aims to deliver a better end-to-end support service that shipping agents, transporters and freight forwarders can benefit from, ensuring an improved goods circulation and day-to-day trade in southern Africa.

The goal of all businesses is to choose an affordable and highly efficient means of transporting products from a warehouse to retailers or individual customers. Companies usually staff a whole department for this important business process with their entire purpose handling goods transportation. The costs that come with the staffing can be devastating and companies usually find that they’re still spending more than what should be on single shipping and transports as a whole.

Transportation logistics providers are time and again the better business solution for managing shipments and transport. They offer various kinds of management and coordination services that offer much more than just improving individual shipments. LoadSmart gives everyone the opportunity to communicate with operators in the freight transportation industry and to develop professional relationships and exchange information with them.

LoadSmart screens every applicant to ensure that only the most reliable transporters are members of the company. Being a member of the LoadSmart network offers several benefits, including genuine contracts and loads, trustworthy and safe transporters, chances of increased trips for transporters and lower taxes for freight forwarders. On LoadSmart.net, users can see available loads, post loads, view available vehicles and post vehicles. News items, available jobs, adverts and articles can be posted as well. Information about warehouses and contracts are also available on the site for other users to see. Users are capable of managing their invoicing via LoadSmart.Net by capturing invoices sent to clients or received from suppliers.

LoadSmart is the perfect networking solution to one’s transport needs. As LoadSmart will cover all the logistic corridors in southern Africa, businesses that are looking for contracts or loads for their vehicles and customers who have contracts or loads that require vehicles for transportation will surely benefit from the opportunities offered by the company. A free membership for 6 months to 3000 freight and transport operators in SADC is also offered by LoadSmart.

Developed by PROSADC in collaboration with GMLS, LoadSmart aims to provide a more lucrative solution to managing shipment and transport in southern Africa.
