Smart supply chain solutions’ provider, Barloworld Logistics celebrates 18 years of offering innovative and customised supply chain solutions 

Supply chains are the lifeblood of any successful business, and Barloworld Logistics is proud to have enabled the growth of its customers through vested partnership over the past 18 years.

It is no secret that for a company to guarantee its sustainability and future proof itself, it has to constantly evolve and innovatively seek ways of meeting the needs of the customer. This requires an effective procurement strategy.

In keeping abreast with the latest trends and understanding the benefits of maximizing efficiency through economies of scale, organisations have to nurture and value strong relationships. Strategic sourcing takes traditional procurement to another level. A level of collaboration with selected suppliers to leverage targeted spend across different locations and multiple companies to get the best price and value.

Olympic Gold Medalist, Heather Mitts once said, “Tell me I can’t, then watch me work twice as hard to prove you wrong.” Similar words were once uttered to Relebohile Malahleha by a friend, implying that Accounting was a difficult subject to pass but with her will and determination to Defy Limits, today she is a qualified Chartered Accountant and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) at Avis Budget Southern Africa, a division of Barloworld Automotive & Logistics.

To coincide with women’s month, Barloworld Automotive & Logistics is celebrating its women workforce in operations. 25 years into democracy, women in South Africa are still grappling with the unbalanced scale of gender equality in the work-place. It is without a doubt that changing the narrative is long overdue, however, credit should be granted to organizations that are making intentional efforts to transform and be inclusive. Barloworld Automotive & Logistics has placed transformation at the heart of everything they do, enabling an environment where women can thrive and exceed expectations in male-dominated industries.
