Your stock, stored safely in Woodstock. Picked, packed, and shipped the same day. Real-time visibility on every unit. No minimums, no lock-in, no nonsense.
JLog is a Cape Town-based 3PL warehousing provider offering flexible pallet and shelf storage, pick-and-pack fulfilment, real-time inventory management via a proprietary platform, and same-day dispatch from its facility at 3 Orion Way, Hillwood, Durbanville. JLog serves e-commerce brands, art dealers, furniture designers, importers, and Shopify/WooCommerce stores across South Africa.
What's Included
JLog warehousing in Cape Town isn't just a room with shelves. It's a full-service 3PL operation: your stock is received, stored, managed, picked, packed, and shipped — all from our Woodstock facility. Here's what's included as standard.
Climate-controlled, insured warehouse space with racked pallet positions and adjustable shelf bays. Every product type gets the right storage setup — from small SKUs on shelves to bulk pallets on industrial racking. Your stock is organised by location, making picking fast and accurate.
Orders come in, we pick them, pack them to your spec, and hand them to a courier — same day if received before 12pm. Branded packaging, custom inserts, gift notes — whatever your brand needs. We treat every order like it's going to your best customer, because it is.
When your stock arrives — whether from a local supplier or an international shipment — we receive it against your purchase order, check quantities, photograph any damage, and put it away into allocated locations. You get a full receiving report through the platform. No guesswork.
Every unit is tracked from the moment it enters the warehouse to the moment it leaves. Barcode scanning, batch tracking, expiry date management, and regular cycle counts. You know exactly what you have, where it is, and how fast it's moving — in real time, via the JLog platform.
Orders received before 12pm are picked, packed, and dispatched the same day. We work with 15+ courier partners via Bob Go, plus DHL and FedEx for international. Our system automatically rate-shops to find the fastest, most cost-effective option for each shipment.
No more spreadsheets. No more "let me check the warehouse." The JLog platform gives you a live dashboard with stock levels, inbound shipments, outbound orders, and complete movement history. Connects directly to Shopify and WooCommerce so your online store is always accurate.
"Our warehouse in Woodstock is five kilometres from the Cape Town CBD. For e-commerce businesses, location matters. When we dispatch before 1pm, Cape Town metro deliveries arrive the next morning. That's only possible because of where we are."
Pricing
We don't hide fees in the fine print. JLog warehousing in Cape Town is priced clearly: you pay for the space you use and the orders we fulfil. That's it. No setup fees, no technology charges, no "admin fees" that appear on your second invoice.

How It Works
Getting started with JLog warehousing in Cape Town is straightforward. No complicated onboarding process, no months of setup, no IT team required. Here's how it works:
Tell us what you're storing and how you want it handled. We set up your account on the JLog platform, configure your storage locations, and connect your e-commerce store if applicable. This typically takes 1–2 business days.
Ship your inventory to our Woodstock warehouse or have us collect it. We receive every item against your purchase order, check condition and quantities, and put it away into allocated locations. You get a receiving confirmation with full details.
Your stock is stored safely in our climate-controlled, alarmed, and insured facility. Real-time inventory tracking means you always know what you have and where it is. Regular cycle counts keep everything accurate.
When orders come in — automatically from your online store or manually via the platform — we pick, pack, and dispatch. Same-day for orders before 12pm. Tracking numbers pushed back to your store and your customer automatically.
That's it. You focus on selling. We handle the warehouse. You have Gerrit's number, not a helpdesk ticket.
Technology
Most 3PL warehouses in Cape Town give you a spreadsheet and a phone number. JLog gives you a real-time platform built specifically for warehouse and logistics management. This isn't a rebranded third-party tool — it's software we built in-house for exactly this purpose.
The platform is what sets JLog apart from every other warehousing provider in Cape Town. You don't need to email us to find out how much stock you have. You don't need to wait for a weekly report. You log in and you know. It's that simple.
Why JLog
There are plenty of warehouses in Cape Town. Here's why the businesses that find us tend to stay with us.
We're a real business, not a faceless platform. Our warehouse is at 3 Orion Way, Hillwood, Durbanville. You can visit. You can meet the team. When you call JLog, you get Gerrit — the person who runs the operation — not a call centre in another province. That matters when something goes wrong, and in logistics, things go wrong. The difference is how fast they get fixed.
We handle fragile and high-value goods as standard. JLog is the official logistics carrier for the Investec Cape Town Art Fair. We've shipped original artworks worth more than most warehouses' entire inventory. That level of care extends to every product we store and ship. If it matters to you, it matters to us. We also offer custom crating for items that need extra protection during transit.
We do customs clearance in-house. If you're importing goods to store in our warehouse, we handle the customs clearance ourselves. No third-party broker dropping the ball. No delays because someone forgot to file a document. Your goods clear customs and go straight into storage — one operation, one provider, zero finger-pointing.
We built our own technology. The JLog platform isn't a white-labelled SaaS product. It's software we built from the ground up to manage warehouse operations, inventory, orders, and shipping. That means when you need a feature, we build it. When something breaks, we fix it. You're not waiting for a third-party vendor to respond to a support ticket.
No lock-in, ever. JLog warehousing runs month-to-month. We don't need contracts to keep clients — we keep them by performing. If we're not delivering, you move your stock. That accountability keeps us sharp, and it should give you confidence that we'll earn your business every single month.
