Dear Friends

As this scribe will be floating on the Atlantic Ocean next week, this will be your pre-Easter edition of Good News Friday!

And Good News it is….as our terminals performed exceptionally well for the week 20 – 26th March, as follows:

CTCT: 17022 TEU handled, due to minimal wind delay, mainly Tuesday & Wednesday, 5.2-hour delay with vessel ranging, increased productivity – well done team!
Rail moves down at 131 moves, night shift at 13%; 6529 gate moves with average stage & gate times at 56 minutes;

CTMPT: 2868 TEU Moves out of planned 1332; stack occupancy at 22%; 1605 truck gate moves at TTAT 21 minutes

Comment : It can be achieved – we all need to play our part (including the weather!)

FPT :  34% berth occupancy , 5 vessels handled, 161 TEU, 7669.81 tons Dry Bulk; B/B : 1105 tons, Fruit 1931 pallets & 18208 tons cement

Even better good news – Exporters Western Cape next function on Wednesday, 19th April, and for all our exporters and friends this is going to be the ‘not to be missed’ one!

We will be addressing the current situation with trade agreements, in particular with reference to AGOA and the AfCFTA Agreement, currently assembling our specialist team with a few surprise planned.

Please diarise the date as the official invitation will be in your inbox on Tuesday, 11th April and booking will be essential as space is limited.

A Happy and peaceful Easter – please drive safely as we want to see you all on the 19th April.
