Linebooker acts as a procurement partner for several industry leading businesses in SA and has successfully completed tenders for leading FMCG, mining, beverage, mega farmers and chemical businesses delivering increased truck supply and above 10% savings on transport costs.

Procurement teams can gain access to 650 plus fully vetted and pre-approved transport companies and 16500 plus trucks in record time. Linebooker has vetted these transport companies and have data available on their service levels, preferred routes, capacity, and availability. This solved the problems of acquiring high-quality carriers for affordable rates.

We operate in a platform world. Large, narrow systems are making way for modular environments where thousands of pieces work together to produce different outcomes, filling gaps that previous types of software couldn’t. It’s the ideal place for a guy like Hendrik van der Walt.

The 47% surge in fuel prices translates into a direct increase of 22% in the cost of goods, says Naude Rademan, CEO of Linebooker, SA’s ‘Uber for Truckers’. In this interview with Alec Hogg of BizNews he explains how consumers have been shielded from the impact of this cost increase, but reckons that cannot last indefinitely, predicting a looming shock for already rising inflation.

Surviving current transport industry challenges, it helps to consider bringing in technology and experience: Truck availability issues, high diesel prices, looting/hijacking and challenging economic environment all putting pressure on your transport costs and service.
