Our operations are driven by advanced technology and uncompromising standards. From automated storage to rigorous cold chain management, our facilities ensure your supply is consistent, safe, and fully traceable.
We maintain strict oversight across every touchpoint. Our dedicated quality assurance teams and automated monitoring systems ensure that all products meet the highest safety and hygiene standards before they reach your business.
Operating to global standards, our primary facility holds FSSC 22000 certification. This internationally recognised accreditation guarantees rigorous food safety management, giving procurement teams complete confidence in our supply chain integrity.
We leverage advanced logistics technology to maximise efficiency and minimise waste. Our intelligent routing, automated retrieval systems, and energy-efficient cold storage ensure a sustainable, high-performance operation that scales with your needs.
From our origins as a focused trading company, Merlog Foods has evolved into a multi-national organisation and a cornerstone of the Southern African frozen food supply chain. We understand that for procurement teams and food service operators, consistency is just as critical as quality.
Our state-of-the-art primary facility in KwaZulu-Natal serves as the engine of our operations. Featuring 12,000 pallet positions and advanced freezer technology, it provides the massive scale required to support national distribution networks.
To better serve our growing client base in Gauteng and the northern regions, our dedicated sales office in Bedfordview provides direct, on-the-ground support, ensuring responsive service and strategic partnership for our inland clients.
We utilise a cutting-edge Schafer Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS). This robotic technology maximises storage density, accelerates order picking, and significantly reduces human error, ensuring your orders are processed with absolute precision.
Our operations are governed by the WAMAS Warehouse Management System. This intelligent software provides complete, real-time traceability for every pallet, from the moment of receipt to final dispatch, guaranteeing accountability and stock accuracy.
Temperature control is non-negotiable. Our facilities maintain a strict minimum of -18 degrees Celsius. With specialised drop-temperature airlocks and continuous environmental monitoring, we guarantee the integrity of your frozen products at all times.
Designed for rapid turnaround, our dispatch area features 12 dedicated loading bays. Supported by voice-picking and radio frequency technology, our logistics team ensures high-volume orders are loaded efficiently and dispatched on schedule.
