Value-added one stop solution

Who We Are

Tourvest Duty Free is a registered, compliant and licensed inbound and outbound duty- and tax-free operator committed to providing a globally competitive export route to market. Based in South Africa, we have a well-developed infrastructure and understand the challenges of doing business in Africa and abroad.
Importing and exporting into this region presents a complex set of business-related risks and we pride ourselves on providing a low-risk, reliable service. Our competitive edge ensures we offer a value-add one-stop-shop solution for all our clients.
Trust and transparency are the building blocks of our success and we have forged enduring partnerships with both our suppliers and our customers.
In addition, we are also an appointed representative and distributor of key alcohol brands marketing them via a number of channels including:

  • Cross border exports via its warehouse in Musina on the Beit Bridge border
  • Exports into Africa and
  • Exports into Europe and the East

While import/export remains the mainstay of our operation, we also provide a duty-free retail store in the Port of Cape Town to service the needs of:

  • Crew from commercial vessels
  • Tourists from the cruise ships and
  • Embassies and diplomatic missions

“Our roots
are in Africa,
but our reach
extends all over
the world.”
