Africa Global Logistics (AGL) and Czarnikow (CZ) have today announced the launch of Supply Chain Alliance Africa (SCA), a collaboration created to strengthen, optimise and future proof supply chains across the African continent and beyond.
International trade is facing unprecedented levels of uncertainty. Ongoing geopolitical conflicts, volatile tariffs, and persistent shipping disruptions continue to place supply chains under significant pressure. SCA Africa has been established to respond directly to these challenges, delivering resilience, transparency and optimisation at every stage of the supply chain.

SCA Africa represents a new value proposition for the continent, offering dedicated vendor managed and purchaser managed inventory solutions tailored to African markets. By integrating financial, logistical and administrative services, SCA Africa enables customers to focus on their core commercial strategy while maintaining full oversight of their supply chains.
