Kweli Load Exchange FAQ
Everything You Need to Know About SADC Trucking on Kweli
New to cross-border work? The SADC logistics glossary explains the terms used on this site — backload, cabotage, CMR, one-stop border post, weighbridge — in plain language.
What is Kweli?
Kweli is a trust-led logistics coordination network for Southern Africa. It operates at lx.kweli.co.za and matches truck loads to operators based on corridor, cargo type, and execution history. The name Kweli means “truth” in Swahili.
How do I find truck loads in SADC?
Join Kweli at lx.kweli.co.za to access cross-border and local truck loads across SADC corridors. Loads are matched to your truck type and the corridors you operate on. There is nothing to download from an app store — it opens in your phone’s browser at lx.kweli.co.za, and you can pin it to your home screen if you want it there.
Is Kweli free to use?
Yes. Kweli is free at its core. There are no subscriptions, no commissions, and no pay-to-play fees. You can access loads, join corridors, and participate in the network at zero cost. See exactly what free covers.
What SADC corridors does Kweli cover?
Kweli covers major SADC transport corridors including routes between South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Mozambique, DRC, Malawi, Tanzania, and Botswana. This includes the North–South Corridor, Beira Corridor, and Maputo Corridor among others.
How does load matching work on Kweli?
Loads are matched based on three factors: the corridor (route), the cargo type and truck requirements, and past execution history. This means you see loads relevant to your truck and the routes you actually operate on — not random posts from unrelated groups.
Who can join Kweli?
Kweli is open to transport operators and fleet owners, shippers and load posters, and brokers and intermediaries who operate across SADC corridors. Both cross-border and local (in-country) participants are welcome.
How is trust built on Kweli?
Trust on Kweli is earned through consistent action, not ratings or reviews. The platform tracks execution patterns over time — whether loads move as agreed, which corridors behave predictably, and which arrangements consistently complete. This creates a trust signal based on real behaviour.
What is a corridor on Kweli?
A corridor on Kweli represents a specific transport route or region — such as Durban to Harare or Johannesburg to Lusaka. Corridors provide context for load matching, trust building, and network coordination. You select the corridors you operate on when you join.
Do I need to install an app?
No. Kweli runs in your phone browser. There is no separate app to download, no platform to learn, and no account to create. You join at lx.kweli.co.za and everything happens in your phone browser.
How is Kweli different from Facebook load groups?
Facebook load groups are open to everyone and generate a lot of noise — mismatched trucks, irrelevant routes, and deals that don’t complete. Kweli is corridor-specific, matches loads to truck types, and builds trust through execution history rather than social media engagement.
What is a Webcard?
Webcards are structured digital cards used within Kweli to facilitate transactions on Kweli LX. They present load details, truck availability, and other information in a clear, standardised format that makes it easy to respond and take action.
How do I join Kweli?
Visit kweli.co.za/join or open lx.kweli.co.za to get started. You’ll say what you need first — loads for your trucks, or trucks for your load — then add your trucks and the lanes they run. You get both sides either way, and you can start straight after.
