JSE-listed consumer goods manufacturer, Tiger Brands, has reappointed and expanded its logistics partnership with supply chain firm Transnova following a competitive open tender process concluded in June 2026.<\/p>\n
The decision consolidates Transnova\u2019s role as lead logistics partner overseeing and optimising Tiger Brands\u2019 national distribution network.<\/p>\n
The operation moves approximately two million tons of finished goods annually to more than 4 000 customers across 190 000 delivery locations nationwide.<\/p>\n
The formal request for proposals was issued earlier this year in accordance with governance requirements for JSE-listed companies to subject material contracts to open competition.<\/p>\n
Transnova, which has partnered with the food producer since 2016, retained the contract and secured an expanded scope as lead logistics partner after undergoing competitive evaluation.<\/p>\n

The expanded mandate coincides with a broader portfolio reset executed under Tiger Brands CEO Tjaart Kruger, as the group divests non-core assets to focus on higher-margin growth categories.<\/p>\n
In June 2026, Tiger Brands confirmed the disposal of portions of its legacy Beacon chocolate business, retaining only selected snack brands aligned with its long-term strategy.<\/p>\n
The group has also completed the sale of its Randfontein operations and previously exited its equity stake in Chilean food group Carozzi.<\/p>\n

Alongside the portfolio adjustments, Tiger Brands reported positive financial results for the first half of FY26:<\/p>\n
Operating income: Increased 26.1% to R2.1 billion, driven by margin improvements and cost-saving programmes.
\nVolume performance: Volume growth of 4.5% offset price deflation across categories.
\nCapital returns: Returned R9.2 billion to shareholders via special dividends and share buybacks since FY24.<\/p>\n
Against this backdrop of capital allocation and cost containment, the expansion of the logistics contract reflects the group\u2019s ongoing focus on bottomline efficiencies.<\/p>\n

The partnership originally began in 2016 when Tiger Brands appointed Transnova to establish a centralised logistics control tower integrated with a transportation management system and business intelligence analytics.<\/p>\n
The structural shift moved Tiger Brands away from a single third-party logistics provider model, which had introduced operational rigidity and elevated transport costs, to a multi-carrier network comprising over 60 contracted carriers with real-time visibility.<\/p>\n
According to group metrics, the decade-long collaboration has delivered documented operational outcomes:<\/p>\n
Cumulative savings: Over R300 million generated in transport and network efficiency savings.
\nDisbursement oversight: Management of more than R900 million in annual transport disbursements.
\nExecution scale: Delivery of over 605 000 loads to more than 190 000 delivery locations.<\/p>\n
The operational transformation received industry recognition in 2025, winning a Gold Award at the Logistics Achiever Awards and an Outstanding Achievement award at the Supply Chain Excellence Awards.<\/p>\n
