Delivering Quality, Not Just Cases

When it comes to transporting fine wine across South Africa, the difference between “delivered” and “delivered right” is massive.

Every winemaker knows that a Cape summer can be unforgiving. Inside a standard tautliner, temperatures can climb to 55 °C — hot enough to cook the quality right out of your bottles. The aroma dulls, the colour shifts, and that perfect balance you crafted in your cellar? Gone.

At LMC Express, we’ve built a system that keeps your wine safe from the heat. Every bottle travels at a steady +18 °C, from cellar to client, ensuring your product arrives exactly as it left — balanced, bright, and ready to impress.

Keeping It Cool Nationwide

We’re on the move every week, running temperature-controlled routes across South Africa:

• Cape Town → Bloemfontein

• Cape Town → Garden Route

• Cape Town → Johannesburg / Durban

Whether it’s a full pallet, half pallet, or just a few cases, we’ve got the gear, the routes, and the know-how to keep your wine cool from start to finish.

Two Easy Ways to Ship

Client-to-Client Pallet Service
Ideal for winemakers sending bulk stock straight to restaurants, retailers, or distributors.

Depot-to-Depot Parcel Service
Perfect for smaller runs. Just pack your bottles in our LMC Express parcel
(L 495 mm × W 320 mm × H 300 mm) and drop it off at your nearest depot for a safe, chilled delivery to your customer.
