We tell the story of every load

FleetXchange was built in Gaborone, by people who watched how freight actually gets arranged in this region — and thought it could be done with a great deal less guesswork.

The problem

Freight here runs on phone calls and trust in strangers

Someone needs a load moved. They phone a friend, who knows a guy, who has a cousin with a truck. Nobody checks whether that truck is insured or whether that driver is licensed. There is no record of what was agreed. Once the truck leaves, nobody knows where it is until it arrives — or does not. And when it is time to pay, both sides start chasing.

Meanwhile there are thousands of vehicles on the road running empty in one direction, owned by people who would happily take that load if they had known it existed.

FleetXchange exists to close that gap. Verified transporters on one side, real loads on the other, and a platform in the middle that keeps a record of what was agreed, where the cargo is, and who owes whom.

How we are built

Two divisions, because freight is not one thing

Trying to serve a household moving a fridge and a mining company shipping across a border with the same product serves neither of them well. So we built two.

Lite Haul — the marketplace

Self-service, in the app. Clients post loads, verified transporters bid, the client chooses. Fast, transparent, priced by the market. FleetXchange provides the platform, the verification and the payment rails — the two parties do the rest themselves.

Heavy Haul — the brokerage

Managed, in the web portal. We source and vet the transporter, run the bidding, coordinate the shipment across borders, review proof of delivery and handle the invoicing. The client deals with one party: us.

What we hold ourselves to

Four commitments

Verify, always

Nobody carries a load on FleetXchange without their documents being checked by a person. It slows onboarding down slightly. It is worth it.

Show the whole journey

Live tracking and a status at every stage, because “it is on its way” is not information.

Pay people properly

Earnings credited on completion, withdrawals on a fixed weekly run. Transporters should not have to chase money they have already earned.

Build for this region

Botswana first, then the corridors around it. Border posts, permits and the realities of cross-border freight are designed in, not bolted on.

The company

Fleetxchange (Pty) Ltd

Registered and operating from Gaborone, Botswana, serving Botswana and the Southern African corridors that run through it — South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Namibia.

Our tagline is “We tell the story”. It is not decoration. Every load on FleetXchange carries its own record: who moved it, when, along which route, what was agreed and what was delivered. That story is what makes the difference between a transaction and a business relationship you can rely on.
