Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: Description: cid:image008.png@01CC8E35.1B805D70

In the past Afrit made use of very expensive materials in the manufacturing of refrigerated bodies and therefore were not price competitive. Thanks to a new business agreement Afrit is able to offer refrigerated trailers at a much more competitive price.

Afrit recently engaged in a new business agreement with Elite Fibre that will provide mutual benefits for both parties. Afrit purchase insulated bodies from Elite Fibre and in return Elite Fibre will make use of Afrit chassis. The new venture will lead to improved prices, which benefit our clients.

Elite Fibre is one of the largest manufacturers of G.R.P insulated and semi-insulated load bodies in South Africa. The company is well renowned for delivering quality products and services. They have been in business for quite a few years with branches in Cape Town, Durban and Gauteng.

Afrit has sold 30+ refrigerated trailers with Elite Fibre bodies since the new agreement. We are looking forward to the road ahead and the new heights that both companies will be looking to achieve.
