Cape Town Port Powers Up for Fruit Season | Johannesburg News
Description
Cape Town’s port is on fire with efficiency gains ahead of the fruit export season—container volumes up 16%, truck times slashed to under 40 minutes, rail performance soaring 82%, and vessel waits cut nearly in half. New gear like 28 cranes and shore tension units are slashing downtime and keeping cold chains intact. Transnet’s deep collaboration with the fresh produce industry, weather-responsive planning, and smart use of private operators and backup storage are turning chaos into coordination. With everyone from farmers to shipping lines staying synced, the port’s goal? Keep improving and become the world’s most reliable gateway for fresh produce.
