Denvor Booysen, Customs Manager Leschaco South Africa, explains: “We engaged in the South African Customs program for AEO and had to undergo a tedious verification process. The intense verification program entailed a detailed company overview with CSK Competency Assessment, operational processes, process flow mapping as well as an in-depth Safety and Security check of the entire business model.” He concludes: “Leschaco South Africa is now a much-deserved AEO trader, which grants us a somewhat elite status together with many other Leschaco subsidiaries.”
