World class facilities underpin DSV’s commitment to SA’s growing logistics market

DSV’s recently developed world-class, flexible, and scalable logistics facilities in Gauteng and Cape Town – to be followed by a new facility in Durban – underpin the company’s investment in South Africa’s growing need for logistics and courier services.

The facilities bring DSV’s people together to deliver innovative, efficient, and robust end-to-end supply chain solutions, and the centralised facilities are aligned with DSV’s global strategy of consolidating office and warehouse space.

DSV Park | Gauteng places the company at the centre of economic gravity, ideally situated between Johannesburg and Pretoria and close to OR Tambo International Airport. DSV Park | Cape Town is similarly ideally positioned, adjacent to Cape Town International Airport and the N2.

DSV Park | Durban is next in line with occupation planned for September 2023. 

The consolidation of premises, standardisation of business processes and investment in technology will bring improved efficiencies and operational quality. Importantly, different business units are now working alongside each other, collaborating, and sharing ideas. This will accelerate response times to customers.

The facilities incorporate best practice in environmental sustainability and business continuity, and although designed and built to look after customers well into the next decade, there is additional space to grow should the need arise. The business case proved that this investment would ensure DSV remains cost competitive to customers.

DSV has followed global guidelines and specifications and focused on what’s necessary to optimise our service, and the company has worked with local communities wherever possible and has built on the training and partnerships already developed through our Enterprise Development programme.

DSV Park | Gauteng houses most of the business units operating in the province, including Road, Air & Sea, Solutions and Shared Services Centre.

DSV Park | Cape Town houses all the Western Cape’s operations, namely Road, Healthcare, Air & Sea and Solutions.
