Efficient air cargo solutions from South Africa to destinations worldwide

ICExpress provides international airfreight services for businesses that need to move cargo quickly and reliably across borders. Whether you are shipping time-sensitive components to a European manufacturer or delivering trade-show exhibits to Asia, our airfreight solutions connect South Africa to the world.

When to Choose Airfreight

Time-Critical Cargo

Production-line shutdowns, urgent spare parts, project deadlines — when days matter and sea freight is too slow, airfreight bridges the gap.

High-Value Goods

Electronics, precision instruments and luxury items benefit from the reduced transit time and secure handling environment of air cargo.

Perishable Products

Fresh produce, flowers, pharmaceuticals and other temperature-sensitive goods require the speed that only air transport can offer.

Trade Shows & Events

Exhibition materials, product samples and promotional displays that must arrive by a fixed date for international conferences and expos.

Service Types

Door-to-Door

We handle the entire process from collection at your South African premises through to final delivery at the overseas destination. This includes local collection, export customs clearance, airline booking, import clearance and last-mile delivery.

Airport-to-Airport

Cargo is delivered to the departing airport and made available for collection at the destination airport. Ideal when you or your client has an established clearing agent at the receiving end.

Consolidated Airfreight

Smaller consignments are grouped with other cargo heading to the same destination, allowing you to benefit from volume rates without needing a full unit load device (ULD).

Charter & Part-Charter

For oversized, heavy or extremely urgent cargo that cannot travel on scheduled flights, we arrange dedicated aircraft charters tailored to your requirements.

North America
Asia & Far East
