About Kestrel
A South African courier built around one promise: the parcel arrives when we said it would.
Our story
Kestrel started in 2011 with two vans in Midrand, delivering same-day for a handful of pharmacies. The pharmacies told their suppliers, the suppliers told theirs, and within three years Kestrel was running a depot in Germiston too.
In 2018 we opened Epping and the overnight line-haul to Cape Town, so a parcel collected in Johannesburg in the afternoon is on a doorstep in the Western Cape the next morning. Today a team of more than a hundred people moves about 48 000 parcels a month.
