Buying cable? Don't just ask “How much?”

Before placing an order, make sure you know:
🔌 What the cable will be used for
📏 The required size/specification
🏗️ The environment it will operate in
🚚 When you need it

Getting those details right upfront can make the whole process easier – and help you find the right solution faster.

Still not sure? Ask the team.

Cable is at the heart of what we do – but sometimes a project needs more.

Our offering now includes a broader range of electrical accessories and supply solutions, helping customers source more of what they need through one trusted team.

Less running around.
Less supplier juggling.
More getting the job done.

That's the point of More Than Cable.

Need MORE THAN CABLE? We've got you covered.

More Than a Sale. It's a relationship.

Meet Kershini Govender, part of our Sales team.
What does she enjoy most about sales?
“Connecting with new people, listening to what they need and helping resolve their problems.”

For Kershini, great customer relationships come down to three things:
Trust. Honesty. Consistent follow-up.

And when she says More Than Cable, she means delivering on all three – with reliable service and quality every time.

Her favourite reminder?
“Do good and be good.”

That's a pretty good way to approach business.

The strength of Continental Cables isn't just in what we supply.

It's in the people who show up every day and work together to keep customers moving.

The strongest teams aren't built overnight. They're built through trust, support, shared goals, and people who are willing to help each other succeed.

At Continental Cables, collaboration is more than a workplace value – it's part of how we work every day.

That's what being More Than Cable means.

South Africa's mining industry helps power the country's economy – and it depends on reliable infrastructure every day as it operates in some of the toughest conditions imaginable.

Mining cables are designed to withstand demanding environments including abrasion, moisture, vibration, and constant movement. As a result, they need to be durable, flexible, and reliable.

When conditions are tough and operations run around the clock, quality and reliability matter – underground and above it.

Every successful business has a story.

At Continental Cables, that story spans generations.

Founded by Alfie Altenberger in 2007, Continental Cables was built on a simple belief: strong relationships, quality products, and exceptional service.

Over the years, the company has grown from a specialist cable supplier into a trusted partner serving customers across South Africa through branches in Alrode, Durban, Centurion, and Nelspruit.

Today, that legacy continues under the leadership of the next generation, combining the values that built the business with a vision for the future.

Heritage isn't just about where you've come from. It's about what you continue to build.
