As Africa continues to
attract major business
from the Far East, having
the necessary capacity is
becoming increasingly
important.
According to Kitty
Hewitt of Botswana
Consolidators, who is
licensed to move bonded
cargo, the company
has formed very
close associations and
partnerships with Durbanbased
companies, bringing
cargo in from the Far
East destined for various
African markets.
Hewitt says there are
many projects under way in
various African countries.
“China, for instance, has
several projects under way
in Botswana. The Far East
is a growing market that
definitely cannot be ignored
and will continue to play a
major role in the next few
years across Africa.”
