Logidoo and Skynet have streamlined supply chains since their January 2024 partnership, connecting China, Europe, and South Africa to West African markets.
By prioritizing smart groupage solutions, this partnership is not only expediting goods movement but also propelling Africa’s economic growth to unprecedented levels.
Logidoo’s nine-month partnership with Skynet has significantly enhanced operations. As the world’s largest global express franchise network, Skynet is well-positioned to seize Africa’s emerging opportunities.
This collaboration has made a significant impact on three key corridors, aligning with Logidoo’s strategy to streamline goods movement and expand its market presence across Africa.
Shipping efficiency in the China-to-West Africa corridor has greatly improved, cutting transit times for goods from one of the region’s primary suppliers.
This improvement has been vital for businesses dependent on prompt Chinese imports, boosting delivery efficiency and customer satisfaction.
The Europe-to-West Africa route now offers cost-efficient, streamlined cross-border processes, critical for industries dependent on European suppliers and manufacturers.
The South Africa to West Africa corridor, vital for intra-African trade, has been optimized, ensuring smoother goods transport and broadening market access across the continent.
“Our partnership has not only enhanced our operational capabilities but also allowed us to provide clients with more efficient, cost-effective, and reliable shipping options, especially along these key trade routes,” said Tamsir Ousmane Traore, CEO of Logidoo.
The Logidoo-Skynet partnership primarily focuses on implementing advanced groupage strategies, which consolidate multiple shipments into single loads, optimizing transport capacity and greatly reducing costs.
As a result, Logidoo has realized substantial cost savings by minimizing empty transport space and addressing challenges such as high shipping fees and inefficient routing.
This partnership has reduced transit times by up to 40%, significantly enhanced operational efficiency, and greatly boosted customer satisfaction.
As Skynet extends its presence in Africa and the Middle East, its partnership with Logidoo underscores its dedication to enhancing trade routes in emerging markets.
Chaminda Gunasekera, Managing Director of Skynet – Asia and Australia, stated, “Partnering with Logidoo has enabled us to unlock the vast potential of the African logistics market. Our combined expertise has created a more efficient network that benefits businesses across multiple continents.”
Logidoo continues to innovate and broaden its services, staying dedicated to forming strategic partnerships that enhance value for clients and support the development of Africa’s logistics infrastructure.
“The positive impact of our partnership with Skynet goes beyond business,” Traore remarked. “We’re helping make African trade more efficient and accessible. This collaboration is a key step toward achieving our vision of a more connected and prosperous Africa.”
