Sub-Saharan Africa
The poor or non-existent infrastructure of the African continent hampers economic development, especially in cross-border traffic. For countries without own access to seaports, such as Malawi, Rwanda and Uganda, intra-African transport costs account for up to 75% of the total transport costs.
The railway network usually consists of branch lines from the seaports to the interior of the country. However, it is still a long way from an African-wide network.
China is pushing ahead with the expansion of infrastructure in the economic centers through massive investments. In addition, there are still significant quality defects in the equipment. Training and quality standards as usual in our latitudes are not available. Therefore, it is crucial to have reliable partners with a high-quality standard assisting at the destination.

TRUCK TRANSPORTS SUBSAHARA
Africa is increasingly moving into the focus of politics and economy. This leads to an increasing attractiveness of this continent and consequently to an increased demand when it comes to freight transports from or to Africa. Sub-Saharan Africa, which means the African countries south of the Sahara desert, thus represents a crucial pivotal point.
Whether it’s an express trip with a minibus, Avia truck, covered semitrailer, widenable trucks, mega trailers and jumbo trains – we transport your goods according to your needs. Through an international network of carriers, we can provide you with trucks from size S to XXL.
SEA FREIGHT SUBSAHARA
Short sea, overseas, cross trade… shipments to any sub-Saharan port can be realised without any worries. Of course, we are familiar with the dominant sub-Saharan ports, for example the port of Lagos in Nigeria, and can thus offer you the best possible advice.
From consolidated containers (LCL) or full containers (FCL), to large-volume goods (OOG) via special containers, conventional lines, roll trailers and charter parties, we can provide you with every transport solution required.
We will be happy to take care of all the necessary details and, of course, organise the pre- and post-carriage, according to the door-to-door principle.
SPECIAL TRANSPORTS SUBSAHARA
Special transports require professional knowledge, which we have acquired through many years of experience and extensive specialisation. We safely transport national and international special cargo to its destination.
Before we set your cargo on its way, we offer intensive transport consultation, determine suitable routes and create an individual concept with scheduling.
AIR FREIGHT SUBSAHARA
If transporting your goods by land or sea would take too long or is not the best option for you for other reasons, air freight might be the ideal solution.
Addis Ababa, Bahir Dar or Asosa, we are familiar with all sub-Saharan airports and they are not new territory for us. Accordingly, we will be happy to create a tailor-made air freight offer for you and personally take care of the special challenges surrounding your shipment.
CROSS TRADE SUBSAHARA
You want to transport goods from one country to another without them passing through the country of your company headquarters, e.g. from the manufacturer directly to your customer? This is considered a cross trade and because of the special requirements, specialists are required here. As an international freight forwarder, we at Roland Logistik have lots of experience in this field and can carry out your transport for you unerringly and reliably.
Through our worldwide partners, we can ensure high quality in the execution and monitoring of your transport. With our experts, even complex cross trade projects are going to be a complete success from planning to delivery.
