Our Story

Deep Frozen Logistics (Pty) Ltd
was founded in August 2017.

Through the amalgamation between Black Ginger Ice Cream and BR Services, Deep Frozen Logistics established themselves as a market leader with over three decades of experience collectively.

Driven by our passion for exceptional service delivery and our extensive distribution network we have established ourselves as not only a market leader, but the biggest distributor of Dairymaid Ice Cream in the country.

We continue to push and test the boundaries to ensure that our service delivery remains on the forefront of market standards through our unwavering commitment to excellence and our dedication to service delivery to all of our clients.

We see a future where temperature-controlled logistics isn’t just a back-end cost - it’s the invisible promise that families and businesses rely on every day.

For more than three decades we’ve kept frozen goods safe and we’ve earned the market-leader spot by obsessing over reliability, not headlines. That heritage gives us a responsibility: to make the cold chain smarter, greener, and genuinely people-first.

To remain South Africa’s most trusted frozen food logistics partner, known for quality, reliability and consistency.

We want the phrase “frozen distribution” to evoke reliability, sustainability, and shared value—not just trucks. We’ve led for three decades by keeping things simple: cold, on time, every time.

The next chapter is about doing that cleanly, transparently, and together.

To deliver temperature-controlled logistics and cold chain distribution with precision and professionalism.

We exist to safeguard temperature-sensitive products through precision in every reading and hand-off, excellence in our processes and people, and reliability that customers can plan their businesses around. Uncompromising precision, operational excellence, and proven reliability—every pallet, every kilometre, every time.

Integrity: Transparent, ethical business practices.
Quality: Commitment to high standards in every delivery.
Reliability: Dependable, consistent service.
Sustainability: Eco-friendly operations through solar power and recycling.
Anti-corruption: Zero tolerance for bribery, fraud, or unethical conduct.
Partnership: Building lasting relationships.

Our operations are designed to minimise waste, optimise fuel consumption, and reduce our environmental footprint across the cold chain.

Our facilities utilise state-of-the-art ammonia-glycol refrigeration systems. Ammonia is a natural refrigerant with zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and zero Global Warming Potential (GWP), making it one of the most environmentally friendly options available. This technology allows us to maintain precise, stable temperatures with significantly lower environmental impact than standard refrigerants.

From strategic route optimisation to advanced cold chain monitoring, our systems are built to reduce delays, prevent losses, and ensure consistent performance.

We believe that efficiency on the move is critical to both cost-effectiveness and environmental care and our vehicles are equipped with cooling solutions, renowned for their thermal efficiency and reliability.

These systems provide consistent and uniform cooling with lower energy consumption, ensuring that even on the longest journeys across Southern Africa, temperature integrity is maintained with minimal fuel usage whilst every vehicle in our fleet is fitted with active sensors that monitor temperatures in real-time.

Our Commitment to Sustainability & Efficiency

A Greener, Smarter Cold Chain

As a market leader for over three decades, we understand that leadership is not a static title; it is a continuous commitment to innovation and responsibility. For us, sustainability and efficiency are two sides of the same coin.

Every litre of fuel we save, every kilowatt of energy we conserve, and every product we protect from spoilage is a victory for our partners’ bottom line and for the planet. Our strategy is built on a foundation of best-in-class technology and strategic partnerships, ensuring our cold chain is not just reliable, but also responsible.

By integrating sustainable infrastructure at our core, deploying a highly efficient and intelligently monitored fleet, and fostering a culture of continuous improvement, we are building a cold chain that is fit for the future—one that delivers value for our partners, security for consumers, and a tangible commitment to the world we all share.
