He says Transnet is focused on improving operational efficiencies at the ports through procuring additional equipment and implementing new systems to reduce congestion. “Several years, the functioning of our ports has declined relative to ports in other parts of the world and particularly on our own continent as well, this constrains economic growth. The agriculture sector for example relies heavily on efficient well run ports to export tier produce to overseas markets. Fresh produce cannot wait for days or even weeks while stuck in the terminal. This hurts businesses,” says Ramaphosa.
