What Clients, Partners & Affiliates say
Mr Ricardo de Beer
East London Industrial Development Zone (ELIDZ)
The East London Industrial Development Zone SOC Ltd (ELIDZ), hereby confirm that GMLS has been a competent, trusted, and reliable service provider to our organisation in the field of customs advisory services since 2010.
During the time that GMLS has been contracted by the ELIDZ, several significant milestones have been achieved, such as having the first CCAs and CCAEs ever to be registered in an IDZ in South Africa, and also having the most CCAEs registered by GMLS.
GMLS’ services have also strategically extended beyond SARS CCA/E registration formalities, to encapsulate training, workshops and skills transfer for the us as the Zone operator and also for our investors located within the Zone from diverse industries.
GMLS has also been a formidable and respected advocate for the ELIDZ and for our CCAEs when engaging key government stakeholders such as SARS, National Treasury, the dtic and ITAC in ensuring that the customs duty, VAT and Section 12R incentives are realised accordingly by the intended beneficiaries.
It is thus without any hesitancy or reservation that we recommend GMLS to any other SEZ that is considering and wishing to utilise GMLS’ services in the domains of supply chain management, international trade, import/export processes and procedures, and customs compliance advisory services.
