T.J.E. FREIGHT SOLUTIONS is dedicated to develop and grow an operational company within the sphere of the freight industry. Our purpose would be establishing a blue chip customer base for T.J.E. FREIGHT SOLUTIONS enabling us to expand selectively. We are identifying markets that we plan to enter over the next year in order to achieve market expansion both within and outside of the current operational sphere. (Aligned with Company strategy)

We focus on building and strengthening our relationships with our customers and service providers and will con-tinuously seek ways in which to improve our services. The image of our company will be further developed and promoted in the local market through various means of advertising and exposure and preferably by word of mouth of good service levels.

In today’s world, sales and profits are essential if one wants to stay in business, but to be truly competitive in today’s market, we need to consider other key measures of success. We are convinced that one of the most important of these measures is customer satisfaction. Customer satisfaction and the loyalty that we receive from the customer rests primarily on the degree in which the customers are involved in the entire operational process. The key element that defines a good business relationship is trust and it is important that everyone involved in the business must be aware of our commitment to “Deliver the Promise”. We are selective in our approach to new business to ensure that we have the capacity and resources to service the customers effi-ciently and effectively.

Commodity Trading is our core focus, while establishing the business, and due to the ever increasing outsourc-ing of supply chain management and industry adaptation, we shall have the services of warehousing, distribu-tion and freight handling, Clearing and Forwarding, Transport Brokerage, Supply Chain Management and Oper-ating within a deregulated environment with no entry or exit barriers, the success and survival of our organiza-tion is dependent on adaptation to change, diversification, innovation and customer driven focus.

GOALS & OBJECTIVES

Medium-Term Goals

To purchase our own facility rather than leasing. This will increase our asset base and give rise to sureties as a result of escalation in commercial property prices. This can then aid in MBO’s if funded via equity investments.

To acquire handling equipment and systems such as drum handling equipment, container un-pack ramps, heavy and light forklifts, cranes, racking systems, barcode labelling systems, bag-ging equipment, warehouse management systems etc.

To intensively market our operations, facility and unique handling systems through web page development, internet advertising, conferences, seminars and expos.

To align ourselves with strategies of the various developmental sectors in our economy.

To foster the need for market penetration when trade barriers dictate economic growth e.g. tex-tile quota system, agricultural tariff barriers, MIDP, free trade agreements to name a few to grow our client base.

Short-Term Goals - continued

To gain knowledge of Group age operations and apply such.

To expand into IDZ’s .

To continue to support social responsibility programmes.

To acquire a facility within the Durban port area.

To expand into all the South African Port Operation areas including Rich-ards bay, East London, Port Elizabeth, and Cape Town.

To research opportunities in across border countries such as Maputo, Swa-ziland, Zambia, Zimbabwe and DRC

We will achieve this by marketing our ability to be the first choice of customer seeking such services. Extending from the short to medium term continues our objective to secure contractual business from blue chip companies. To serve as an advantage will be the micro economic principle of these customers becoming compliant with the BEE act and the process of Black Economic Empowerment.

We are customer focused by only abiding to key performance indicators when completing any project.

Standard operating procedures are never the same for our projects but rather project specific.
