Hub port access

Business is being encouraged to grasp the
opportunities created by the hub status of the port of
Ngqura and its integration into the Coega Industrial
Development Zone.
The hub provides ready access to African markets
in particular, believes Siya Mhlaluka, Terminal
Executive Manager Eastern Cape Terminals.
Logistics companies and traders are starting to
realise the opportunities, he says.
Another is for value-added assembly and
manufacturing.
Regular calls on the port from destinations
around the world mean that it is well positioned for
companies wanting to source components or raw
materials from different places, to add value, and to
then export the finished product.
