Founded in 1976, Kelrn Transport has evolved from transporting its own produce to becoming a leading logistics provider in South Africa. Committed to community support, founder Kenne de Kock started the Kelrn MTB Classic in 2012 to aid child welfare in the Northern Cape. The event, organized by Kenne, Joy de Kock, and their staff, marked its 10th anniversary in 2023, raising 1 million rand for seven child welfare beneficiaries.

The annual Kelrn MTB Classic aims to sustainably support child welfare through the efforts of sponsors, Kelrn personnel, and public benefit organizations.
