About CrownXpress

We take the paperwork so you can get on with your business


Who we are

A South African import and export company

CrownXpress moves goods into and out of South Africa for businesses of every size, from contractors and manufacturers to traders and exporters, and for individuals too.

Our clients have usually found what they need already, or have a buyer waiting abroad. What they do not want is to deal with freight forwarders, clearing agents, tariff codes and port charges one bill at a time. So we do it for them, from sourcing and shipping to customs clearance and delivery.

You deal with one person at CrownXpress from the first quote to the day the goods arrive. That person knows your shipment, answers your calls and tells you straight when something is going wrong.

Why businesses trust us

What you can hold us to

Affordable, clear pricing

Competitive rates, with freight, duties, VAT, clearing and delivery listed separately. If SARS reassesses the duty, we show you their notice.

Efficient from start to finish

One team runs sourcing, shipping, customs and delivery, so there are fewer hand-overs and fewer delays.

Punctual deliveries

We plan every shipment around your deadlines and keep you updated from loading to delivery.

Documents checked before shipping

We review the invoice, packing list and permits while the goods are still with the supplier. Problems get fixed there, not at the port.

We say no when we should

If a permit will not be issued, or the duty makes the deal pointless, we tell you before you spend money.

One contact for the whole job

No passing you between departments. The person who quoted you is the person who delivers.

Partners we know by name
