South Africa’s freight and logistics companies prepare for anti-migrant protests

# South African freight operators are delaying deliveries, mapping alternative routes and weighing additional security before tomorrow’s scheduled anti-migrant demonstrations. They seek to shield workers and cargo from possible disruptions along some of the busiest transport corridors. The Road Freight Association’s CEO, Gavin Kelly, told Moneyweb they’ve asked their members to think about their employees and whether they can delay what they were going to do over this period. He adds if customers were prepared to accept deliveries earlier, that’s probably the best option.
