History

Röhlig-Grindrod – our legacy continues.

Is the combined force of two major players in the global logistics arena – Röhlig & Co from Germany, and Grindrod Limited from South Africa.

In 1852 Carl Röhlig, a courageous entrepreneur, set up a tobacco and insurance business in Bremen, Germany. Seven years later, he expanded his business and developed the sea freight operation, shipping luggage from Europe to the New World. Röhlig was able to secure goods for the return voyage, thus making his business highly successful. This business has grown into one of the largest and sophisticated family-owned logistics companies worldwide with more than 2000 employees in over 30 countries.

In 1910

Captain John Grindrod established a clearing and forwarding agency that would ultimately grow into what is known today as Grindrod Limited. Listed on the JSE since 1986 and represented in 37 countries worldwide, the company employs more than 7 000 skilled and dedicated people. In pursuing the strategy of becoming a fully integrated freight logistics and shipping service provider, it continues to invest in assets and opportunities across the three operating divisions with specific focus on oil and gas, dry bulk, bulk liquid commodities, containerised cargo and vehicles.

In 2000, Röhlig & Co merged with Grindrod Limited to form Röhlig-Grindrod, bringing together more than 270 years of logistics experience. We make use of the global routes we’ve established over more than two centuries, and the relationships we’ve formed to provide our customers with personalised services at competitive rates. Röhlig-Grindrod is testament to the philosophy of thinking globally, acting locally.
