In South Africa, the mining industry relies heavily  on road freight as the primary mode of transportation due to insufficient investment in rail infrastructure. As a result, road freight has become the only viable solution for mines in South Africa, despite the high costs associated with this mode of transportation.

This is where Linebooker, the largest road freight platform in South Africa, can make a significant impact. With more than 18,500 trucks in its network, Linebooker can provide the capacity and flexibility that mining companies need to transport their products efficiently and cost-effectively.
