OUR HISTORY
Delivering excellence in transport since 2000. Founded in March 2000, Stuart Roos started Crusader Carriers as a brokerage. During 2003, the company was offered the opportunity to distribute paint and chemicals around KZN and into the Eastern Cape.
During that time the core business changed from middleman brokerage to distribution, so it was decided that another business be formed separate from the brokerage arm. Crusader Logistics was established in early 2004 and sought new distribution prospects. This came in the way of national plastics manufacturers who gave Crusader Logistics the opportunity to deliver light but volumetric loads to their customers in Johannesburg.
With the backing of a strong client base, it was decided in February 2009 to merge the two entities heralding the dawn of a successful and thriving line-haul centric transport company under the mantle of Crusader Logistics.
With the intention to offer a more tailor-made solution to clients requiring an outsourced dedicated managed fleet and staffing solution, Crusader Fleet Leasing (Pty) Ltd was established in 2016. This company now has a strong vehicle complement servicing the specific needs of various companies.
CL Freight Solutions (Pty) Ltd was started a year later with long-term staff members awarded directorships in recognition for many years of loyal service. This company fulfills both an empowerment and BBBEE function for the Crusader Group.
