Lusaka office speeds up freight

ED RICHARDSON A REGIONAL office opened by the Walvis Bay Corridor Group (WBCG) in the Zambian capital Lusaka is reducing transit times from Walvis Bay along the Trans Caprivi Corridor. Vichaya Nguluwe was appointed the resident representative of the WBCG in Lusaka in 2005 to kick-start operations. “It has been an offer too challenging to neglect,” says Nguluwe. Apart from actively seeking new business opportunities, the WBCG, together with its Zambian public sector partners, has managed to secure the move of customs operations from Livingstone to Katima Mulilo, allowing for easier and smoother customs operations and faster transport along the Trans Caprivi Corridor.
