TPT gets serious about corridor strategy

In line with its strategy of “growth through corridors”, Transnet Port Terminals has appointed a group executive to drive the concept. Former chief financial officer (CFO) Mark Gregg-Macdonald has been appointed group executive for freight corridors while Sharla Pillay, previously pipelines CFO, moves into his vacated CFO role. Both appointments were effective from April 1. Gregg-Macdonald has served as CFO since 2001. In his new post, he will be responsible for aligning all high impact freight corridors across the company’s five operating divisions. Reporting directly to the Transnet Group COO, he will co-ordinate all corridor plans with a team of Corridor GMs reporting directly to him. Pillay will now head up the Port Terminals finance departments for 14 business units in six of the nation’s ports.
