YA BASADI means Strong Woman
And that is exactly what we are, a team of three very strong woman.
Our team consists of Kentse Oliphant, Joanne van der Ross and Anet Claassen.
Although we come from different backgrounds we have been working together successfully for many years, building strong relationships. Each of us has a world of experience and knowledge about the industry and now by joining forces under the Petrox Group of Companies umbrella, we can operate as one powerful team in order to expand our horizon.
Our administration office is in Hartenbos (Mossel Bay), Western Cape and our trucks/tankers operate out of Sasolburg, Gauteng. We take pride in our reliable, trustworthy and on-time service, and there is no trip too near or too far for us. Growing our company and customer base by delivering what our customers need, where they need it and when they need it. Unfortunately, like others, we are sometimes influenced by operational delays of the gantry.

If any of our customers require “Safe Loading” from another site, we shall gladly engage with the gantry and get the SLP completed.

SQAS
