BEFORE ADECO CLEARING :

 

USED VEHICLES FROM JAPAN: Having been in the Industry of Used Japanese vehicles, we have helped hundreds of customers, mainly from the SADC region buy their vehicles from Durban Dealerships in South Africa. You can visit our blog about used Japanese vehicles here for more information.

 

However we encountered and came across many potential customers who wanted to import directly from Japan, Singapore or the UK. We also got many requests of South African expatriates who wanted to know the process of bringing their goods and vehicles back to SA upon their return. We also got a number of calls from people who wanted us to recommend a reliable Clearing and Forwarding Company for them, some were mere complaints about the bad service they had received from certain companies, interestingly some from people we had never done business with before.

 

THE NEED AROSE, IDEAS CAME IN, WE IMPLEMENTED THEM AND ADECO WAS BORN ( &The Rest Is History)

ADECO’s ROLE IN FACILITATING INTERNATIONAL TRADE :

 

The world Trade Organization defines Trade Facilitation as the simplification and harmonization of international trade procedures, where trade procedures are the activities, practices and formalities involved in collecting, presenting, communicating and processing data required for the movement of goods in international trade.

 

At Adeco, our main objective of trade facilitation is to improve the overall trade environment and reduce trade cost.

 

HELPING AFRICA GROW, HELPING AFRICA EXPORT AND IMPORT

 

We understand that Trade facilitation is of significant importance due to the fact that its all about time reduction in International Trade.

 

At Adeco, we understand that time to export is a significant determinant of comparative advantage. Facilitation of trade through the use of the SARS EDI, which has also significantly improved South African Customs and Port administration, as well as removing other non-traffic barriers supports the  just in time supply chain approach required by Internationally Competitive Manufactures.

 

Just like any other Clearing and Forwarding Company, we understand that each day of delay in shipping time approximates 0.8 per cent of the cost of manufactured goods.

 

Even if you are importing or exporting any form of cargo, not only do we understand that any form of delay may result in loss of profits but that it may also result in you paying more in the form of Port fees and storage fees.

 

In our quest to offer excellent and value added services to our clients, we are strongly guided by the International Federation of Freight Forwarders Association which defines freight forwarding as

“ service of any kind relating to the carriage, consolidation, storage, handling, packing or distribution of the goods as well as ancillary and advisory services in connection therewith, including but not limited to customs and fiscal matters, declaring the goods for official purposes, procuring insurance of the goods and collecting or procuring payment or documents relating to the goods.”

 

PARTNERING WITH INDIVIDUALS, SMEs, ORGANISATIONS AND CORPORATIONS

 

At Adeco, we strive to treat each client equally, be it an individual customer, Small/Medium enterprise, a large organization or world renowned corporation. We value your business no matter how small or big. We do understand that an individual in the Mberengwa district of Zimbabwe needs to receive his used Japanese vehicle as fast as possible, the same way a large business Corporation in Harare or Sandton wants to receive its Cargo Container.
