What We Do
We are a preferred supply chain and logistics service provider within the Food, Beverage and related FMCG industries, providing services across the Value Chain via multiple routes to market. As a proudly South African organisation we have developed a dynamic team that maintains a high standard of professionalism, experience, and relevant technical capability. We perform to the maximum of our abilities as individuals, as service partners and as an organisation.
Our ethos is to consistently strive for innovation and facilitate growth for our customers, fueled through passion, commitment, and sound business practices. We value strategic partnerships with our customers and service partners alike and therefore continuously focus on delivering robust solutions that empower our customers and exceed consumer expectations.
At InterAfrica ZA we pride ourselves in our ability to proactively engage with our customers, creating flexible and innovative business models to suit the changing business landscape and prevailing economic environments.
Who We Are
InterAfrica ZA Group Holdings was formed in July 2019 when Tyrone Rennie, Ian Cockrell and Jeff van Driel left their current roles from a large Supply Chain company for the purpose of creating an organisation that would focus on Brand owners and consumer demands within the FMCG / Retail sector throughout the Southern Africa region. The leadership team was joined by AJ Barnard, a Responsible Pharmacist with extensive functional knowledge to create a compliant Food Safety environment.
