There were few positive outcomes that flowed from the recent Transnet strike, but one was improved communication, in the view of SA Inland Logistics, with whom Transnet met after the strike to hear their complaints.
"It was a positive meeting," saidSail's Gerald Naidu, "where they informed us of their challenges, and we, in turn, put our cards on the table.
"We made it clear to them that they should engage all parties in the industry - and not only the shipping lines, who they have always treated as though they were the only customers at the port. But the lines actually only control a minimal portion of the movement of full container traffic in and out of the port."
