A myriad of challenges at various ports of entry to South Africa, such as long queues, continue to negatively affect the exportation of goods from South Africa and other African countries.
The Department of Public Enterprises is urging the private sector to help in building some ports of entry in order to save the country’s economy. “Other countries in the region are building the biggest port and some trucks are saying South Africa your queue for our goods to go on the ship is too long, we will go to Walvis Bay in Namibia and Beira in Mozambique. They are building the biggest port and Zimbabwe is a contributor to it. So, the trucks you see going through our toll roads from Zimbabwe will now go directly from Zimbabwe to Beira. South Africa will be the loser. So, we don’t have time.
“Some of the companies have diverted a lot of their cargo to Maputo where the port is functioning very well. The issue also is constraints. The railway line can’t be expanded immediately and the volume of trucks going through the border post is much higher than what the border post was designed for.
