PORT DELAYS – OCEAN FREIGHT 16/07/2020

Unfortunately we are still experiencing Port Congestion in South Africa due to poor productivity of the ports, failure on equipment maintenance and shift shut downs due to positive COVID cases within port staff. The recent bad weather also contributed to further delays.

Currently the dwell times in Durban range between 5-10 days, Coega 2-5 days and Cape Town between 10-15 days.

We are working as closely as possible with the shipping lines and will continue to keep you informed on the impact and your Ziegler Representative will keep you updated with updates as and when received.
