South Africa has the most advanced food and beverage market on the African continent, serving its ~60 million population, as well as to export food products within Africa and to other continents.
Supergroup, a global logistics & mobility group — headquartered in South Africa — is one of the leading logistics services providers in the continent. The group provides all kinds of logistics services for retail goods, bulk dry powder and liquids, raw minerals, primary and secondary distribution, warehousing, express domestic and international courier services, freight forwarding and trade financing under various brands.
Partnering with Supergroup enables TE-FOOD to enter a market of hundreds of thousands of supply chain companies together with an established, well-known leader.
As Supergroup is active in the logistics of various products, the cooperation is not limited to the food industry. It also covers providing traceability solutions for non-food supply chains from raw materials to consumer goods.
South Africa has massive export of minerals, chemicals, precious metals, machinery, and food products to hundreds of foreign countries. As a growing number of countries and customers require deeper overview of provenance, or the methods of primary production, TE-FOOD’s blockchain based traceability provides added value to several industries.
Supergroup will also represent TrustOne, TE-FOOD’s decentralized identity based Covid-19 testing management solution, which enables organizations to control the spread of the virus within their premises. As South Africa is amongst the 20 countries with the highest number of cases on the world, we believe TrustOne can be an important tool to help companies improve their safety.
TE-FOOD is the world’s largest publicly accessible, farm-to-table food traceability solution. Started in 2016, it serves 6000+ business customers, and handles 400,000 business transactions each day.
