About us
A Johannesburg team that knows your cargo
Lexmas Freight is run by directors Maemu Masianoga and Gerron Fraser from Rosebank, minutes from City Deep, with our own people on the ground at City Deep and Pretcon.
Rail is cheaper per container on planned loads and cuts CO₂ by about 75%. Road is faster for urgent loads. We'll recommend the right one.
About 4–5 days terminal to terminal on the Natal Corridor. Ngqura and Gqeberha take 6–8 days, Cape Town about 21 days. Road is quoted per load.
