Project experience

DRC Project

Mining site expansion

End-to-end Project logistics for heavy equipment

Expertly managing complex, large-scale mining logistics across Africa, from heavy machinery to full-scale facilities, ensuring projects are delivered safely, on time, and on budget.

When a major mining site in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) planned its ambitious expansion, DSV South Africa was there to make it happen.

Spanning three phases, including concentrator plants, housing projects, and a full-scale smelter, this project required precise coordination and heavy-duty logistics.

With equipment and materials coming from South Africa, China, the US, and other global locations, DSV managed every detail, ensuring the right goods reached the right place at the right time.
