OUR HISTORY
MM Cargo Services (Pty) Ltd has always believed in making trade easier. Founded with passion and a clear purpose, our history is a story of growth, integrity, and meeting the needs of businesses across Southern and Central Africa.
Beginnings
-
2011 – Although MM Cargo Services was formally registered in 2014, our roots go back to 2011. We started by moving small shipments from South Africa to neighbouring countries — often stepping in where larger freight companies were out of reach for SMMEs and individuals. mmcargoservices.co.za
-
Our vision was simple but powerful: there is no cargo too big or too small for us to handle. We wanted to fill the gap — affordable, dependable logistics, customs clearing, and product sourcing for those who couldn’t access big-player rates. mmcargoservices.co.za
Formal Registration & Growth
-
2014 – MM Cargo Services officially registered with the CIPC (Registration No. 2014/217561/07). Becoming a Level 1 BBBEE company was part of our commitment to fairness, transparency, and supporting local growth. mmcargoservices.co.za
-
From just three clients in 2011, we’ve expanded to serve over 35 customer accounts inside and outside South Africa. mmcargoservices.co.za
Expansion & Diversification
-
To meet the wide and evolving needs of our clients, we developed specialist divisions:
-
MMCS Transportation & Logistics – for road, sea, air, and multi-modal freight.
-
MMCS Procurement – sourcing, supplier management & global purchasing.
-
MMCS Inbound & Outbound Customs – handling all customs clearing, documentation, and compliance. mmcargoservices.co.za
-
-
As our operations grew, so did our capabilities: increased clients, larger load volumes, more complex customs work, better technology, and stronger regional reach.
Today and Forward
-
We’re proud to be trusted by businesses of all sizes — manufacturers, retailers, mining, agriculture — across Southern and Central Africa.
-
MM Cargo Services continues to invest in people, systems, and infrastructure to ensure faster transit, smoother customs processes, and better value.
-
We view our journey not just as success in business, but success as enabler: helping clients trade more easily, efficiently, and fairly.
