SANTOVA LOGISTICS LIMITED

Share Code:  SNV         ISIN:  ZAE000090650

TRADING STATEMENT                                                               
In terms of the listing requirements of the JSE Limited ("JSE"), a company has  
to publish a trading statement if an increase or decrease of more than 20%      
(compared to the previous reporting period) in its basic earnings per share or  
basic headline earnings per share is expected.                                  
Shareholders of Santova are advised that basic earnings and basic headline      
earnings per share for the half year ended 31 August 2010 will be approximately 
0,72 and 0,42 cents per share, respectively, an increase of 1 757,6% and 509,3%,
respectively, from the last published 31 August 2009 results.  This increase was
due mainly to much improved performance from all subsidiaries within the Group  
which has been achieved through the successful acquisition of new clients and   
improved trading conditions.  In addition, the acquisition of Aviocean (Pty)    
Ltd, a South African based company, has made a significant contribution to the  
Group`s operational results, as well as with an IFRS3 negative goodwill amount  
which has been recognised in the Group`s profits on consolidation.  The effect  
of this IFRS3 amount alone equates to approximately 0,30 cents per share or     
771,6% of the increase in basic earnings per share referred to above.           
The Group Interim Results for the six months ended 31 August 2010 will be       
released on SENS on or about 25 November 2010.                                  
This trading and SENS announcement has not been reviewed nor audited by the     
Company`s auditors.
