Streamline Your Deliveries with LMC Express
At LMC Express, we understand the challenges small suppliers face when it comes to meeting retailer distribution centre (DC) requirements. That’s why we go beyond just transport—we offer specialized unpacking and sorting services for deliveries to major retailer DCs such as Clicks, Dischem, Shoprite, and Vector.
Many DCs require suppliers to send single purchase orders per pallet. However, as a small supplier, consolidating multiple purchase orders on one pallet can significantly reduce your transport costs. Thanks to our flexible service model, LMC Express ensures your consolidated pallets meet retailer requirements by de-stacking and sorting products into SKUs upon delivery.
Our team of experienced professionals is trained to handle this critical process with speed and accuracy. By familiarizing themselves with your product codes, we minimize delays and ensure that your goods are sorted efficiently, helping you maintain strong relationships with your retail partners.
With LMC Express, you’re not just moving goods—you’re streamlining your supply chain.
Partner with us today for reliable and cost-effective transport solutions tailored to your needs.
