You Stay Ahead
In South Africa’s logistics sector, every delivery is a promise. But behind that promise lies a growing list of risks — cargo theft, hijackings, driver fraud, internal theft, and compliance failures. For many transport businesses, these threats are not hypothetical. They are part of daily operations. And the cost of ignoring them can be devastating.
At Quest Investigation Group, we specialise in protecting what matters most: your cargo, your people, and your business reputation.
The Real Risks on South African Roads
South Africa continues to face some of the highest truck hijacking rates globally. Well-coordinated criminal syndicates target high-value goods, often relying on insider information. Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, and Mpumalanga are among the most affected regions.
But hijackings are only part of the problem. Businesses are also dealing with:
- Driver identity fraud and license cloning
- Fuel theft and internal collusion
- Fraud at loading zones, warehouses, and even admin level
- Cross-border vulnerabilities at key border posts
- Compliance failures leading to rejected insurance claims or contract losses
These issues represent more than logistics risks. They threaten business continuity and brand trust.
