In the Retail Industry being connected or directly linked to your retail network is key. City Logistics offers Inter Branch Transfers as part of our Retail Distribution service.

What our customers have to say about City Logistics’ Retail Distribution Service:

Retailability first approached City Logistics in 2016, when as a retail business we had hit 100 stores.  We were looking for a partner that understood our needs as an entrepreneurial corporation; ease of implementation, maximum value and good service were key.  We were entering a growth phase in our organisation and needed a logistics partner with reach through Southern Africa and an ability to help us scale up our distribution capabilities as we grew.  

 Today we operate over 580 stores across 4 retail formats in 5 countries, and we continue to get the same levels of operational efficiency and support that we got from day one.  

City Logistics remains as a key supply chain partner to us tomorrow as they did 6 years ago!
