P PORT Q&A, Chief Harbour Master
FULL STEAM AHEAD OF THE CROWD PREFACE For seven years, Captain Rufus Lekala was the youngest harbour master in the world. As chief harbour master, and certainly the youngest in the world, he tells of where it all began.
Captain Rufus Lekala, you were raised by a single parent in Limpopo. Because your mother couldn’t afford to take you to university, you decided to become a taxi drive. What got you out of that world? I opened the newspaper one day and found an advertisement about a bursary offering individuals the opportunity to become deck cadets. That I found this advertisement was sheer coincidence. I was someone who was desperate, hungry for success. And so, when the opportunity presented itself, I ran with it.

P PORT Q&A, Planning & Development
FORESIGHT AS CLEAR AS DAY PREFACE Planning and development manager Selvan Pillay outlines the port’s long-term growth plans.
Selvan Pillay, your title, “planning and development manager”, seems broad. What does it entail? My role is to plan and develop the ‘Port Development Framework Plan’ (PDFP) for the Port of Durban and, to manage the Port capital processes. Firstly, this role involves the development and updating of the PDFP for the Port of Durban. The land use plan and the precinct plans both form the basis of the PDFP. This, together with the PDFP for the other Ports and the Rail and Pipeline Infrastructure Plans, forms the Transnet Infrastructure Plan. Secondly,

compiling the Five-Year Capital Programme, which includes all projects that needed to be completed in order to realize the PDFP. The development of the Port of Durban is complicated by the fact that the port is in such close proximity with the city of Durban. So, what growth options are available to the Port of Durban? We don’t have a lot of vacant land around the Port of Durban. One of our options is to optimise what we’ve got. At the Port of Durban, we asked ourselves what cargo do we handle most frequently? Unlike other ports in the country, the Port of Durban handles all of the five

When you choose to work with Vopak, the operational and safety standards apply to every country where we operate. That means Vopak offers uniform quality where you take your shipments, conditioning your products, keeping them safe, and keeping them secure – from ship to shore and from shore to inland transportation. Vopak’s experts, both in its offices and in the field listen to clients’ needs and provide solutions to suit their specific liquids business. Vopak’s history and track record in bulk liquids storage, health, safety and environmental care is unequalled in the sector. Its core competency is the customer’s peace of mind.

Sugar groups expect sweeter results DURBAN
Illovo Sugar and Tongaat-Hulett, South Africa’s two largest sugar and associated agri-processing groups, expect better results in the year to next March. This follows reports of droughts which cut their profits in the 2010-11 period. While Tongaat-Hulett CEO Peter Staude expects “considerable growth in profit from operations,” Illovo is more cautious, with managing director Graham Clark saying he expects operating profit to improve, and finance costs, thanks to the Swaziland expansion project, to rise sharply. Staude and Clark both warn that results would also depend on exchange rate movements. Exchange rates have not been favourable,

Afrox fills up SOUTH AFRICA
Earlier this year, a shortage of gas, ascribed to cold weather, hit various parts of South Africa, especially Gauteng. Afrox, the country’s biggest supplier of liquefied petroleum gas, attempted to minimise the crisis with a consignment of imported gas, which it hoped to receive at the end of July. A spokesman for Afrox said there was a slight improvement in the supply of gas in the nation’s refineries, “but, it is definitely not at 100% in terms of our demand.” Unfortunately for Afrox, gas imports are possibly placing the liquefied petroleum gas company under challenging financial constraints as a result of the additional costs, not to mention the added concern of maximum retail prices of liquefied petroleum

beginning of the country’s “reintegration into the global village”. As a result, the international community grew interested in trading with South Africa, and “foreign direct investment increased” as companies that had previously disinvested away from the country started migrating back to join the South African economy. Concurrently, within the country, “our economy was also experiencing significant levels of growth, buoyed by the lifting of sanctions, foreign direct investments, market re-entrants and the growth of domestic business.” Despite this renewed investment, the country’s legacy of “negative economic growth” spanning “a number of years” reflected

and given the country’s varying demands, cannot be in a position to fund the entire needs of the transport sector. Government’s ambitions need significant support from the private sector, particularly through investments.” And so, the 2011 Department of Transport International Investors’ Conference aimed to: •
Identify and package all potential projects desirous of investments in the Transport space;
•
Showcase different Transport projects that are critical to the delivery of Transport Infrastructure objectives, whilst doing detailed presentations on all of them;
•
Identify and attract the right calibre of investors for all identified projects;
•
Allow for an interaction between investors and Government on all the proposed projects, providing for an opportunity to demonstrate interest by Investors; and,
•
Test the Investor community’s eagerness to invest in our Transport projects, getting initial commitments.
Reported... After surveying all news reports on the 2011 Department of Transport Investors’ Conference, one by the Financial Mail stood out as most informative and comprehensive. According to a June 23 report in the Financial Mail, entitled “Travelling Together”, “the conference did not aim to allay concerns about foreign investment, but served as a platform for the state and public utilities to build strategic relationships and announce new projects.”

KWAZULU-NATAL ECONOMY PREFACE The Port of Durban’s stealth handling of sea-going export cargo put’s it ahead of sub-Saharan seaports and helps the region contribute handsomely to the country’s GDP. Of the total gross domestic product of South Africa, the province of KwaZulu-Natal is responsible for 17%, the second largest contribution nationwide after Gauteng. If you consider the region’s services, which include tourism, transport and logistics; its abundant resources, which include biofuels, paper and pulp, and agribusiness; as well as the goods it manufactures, which include furniture, clothing and textiles, and plastics and injection moulding; it is not surprising that KZN is able to contribute as vastly as it does to the country’s economy. When we look more closely at this 17% slice, we notice that the top three sectors that

CHANGE IS IN THE WIND FOR SHIPPERS & PORTS PREFACE The Chief of the largest shipping line in the world, Eivind Kolding, leads the campaign to improve the business and service of container shipping. And, shipping operators around the globe are on-board the campaign.
WRITER Zingi Mkefa
Maersk Line, the largest container ship and supply vessel operator in the world since 1996, is spearheading a campaign for change in the business of shipping. Simply called “Changing The Way We Think About Shipping”, Maersk Line is calling on the industry to embark on the long overdue radical change other industries – music, aviation, motor, etc. – have had to contend with. In the same way containerisation changed the business of shipping 35 years ago, Maersk Line CEO Eivind Kolding says its time to change again. The campaign takes the form of a debate, and anyone with opinions and viewpoints, anyone who in some way deals with logistics and shipping, is invited to join the debate on the campaign’s website:

“Containerisation has revolutionised global trade. Since it really took off 35 years ago it has grown phenomenally and today manufacturers all over the world can reach consumers wherever they are, all over the world.
Pres Panayotov : Shutterstock.com
With strong growth in global trade comes strong growth in global prosperity; and literally billions have been taken out of poverty due to that. However, since it’s inception 35 years ago, we have not changed much in container shipping, and when we look around us the rest of the world has changed, and quite a lot. When we look at out customers, we see that they’ve grown in size, they have new requirements. And in addition, we have a lot of new customers with their unique requirements. So now it’s time for our industry to change again. We have identified three core areas where change is needed. First, on reliability: only every second container arrives on time. This is simply not good enough. It impacts on our customers tremendously with additional costs, and it makes our service very difficult to provide. Now we need to focus on getting reliability very high, and making sure that the next great war is on reliability. Secondly, we need ease of business. Today its far too difficult and complicated to do container shipping with manual processes, and a lot of interaction. We need to turn to one-click shipping. Thirdly, the environment is critically important to our industry. We need to ensure that we provide sustainable services and ensure that our customers have the most sustainable supply chains. But, to do that, we need transparency, we need to see how we are progressing, how we can improve. Without that, we will not move. What gets measured, gets done. These are three core areas where we need to change, and we need to change now. If we do not change now, someone else will do it for us. To ensure that we progress in the change, we have launched this campaign website. Please join the debate. Thank you.” - EK, Maersk Line

LEADING SHIPPERS BACK THE NEED FOR EASY LOGISTICS, SUSTAINABLE PRACTICE & TRANSPARENCY
Jason Keegan Head of Logistics, Marks & Spencer Video by Maersk Watch video on YouTube online.
“I don’t think there’s true collaboration at the moment between shipping lines and, what you’d call us, shippers.
Michael Dreher Head of Logistics, Adidas Video by Maersk Watch video on YouTube online.
It is very transactional. The shipping lines have a tendency to price and look at collaboration in terms of the following: do they want to drop the price this year to gain market-share, or do they want to increase the price this year because they are short on capacity and they can therefore get a high price for moving that box, and also get back the losses they made the previous year, while chasing market-share? So, as a customer we just feel the pain
“Every day, when a provider is faster or slower, that has an impact on the supply chain. Either you have the products too early in your warehouse, which results in capacity problems; or, the products come too late, and then you have a performance problem. Short answer: 61%, honestly, is not good. The key is that we are not looking at money only. Cheap-cheap, at the end of the day, is expensive, as everybody knows. What we are looking for is a long-term business relationship, a kind of partnership, which is important for us. We want a partner we can trust, a partner we know has been in business for a while, and will stay in business at least for the contractual period. When we tender the business, every prospective partner is asked about their sustainability policy. We look in detail at what our partners are doing to reduce their carbon footprint even more, and what plans they have in place to get even better in future. So what I would look for, without the customer asking for it, is that the shipping companies, at least for the ocean freight part, will deliver together with the bill of the container, the carbon footprint of the container, which will enable the us and the customer to have full track of what our emission per container is. This way, we will easily calculate down per product, and we’ll have open books enabling us to say, listen this t-shirt from – say Indonesia – has this carbon footprint; and, this shoe out of Vietnam has this carbon footprint”. - MD, Adidas
of that. We don’t really get any benefit at all. How we select a shipping line or our partners is quite simple. Price is a factor. But, that price fluctuates within a particular band that we’re happy with.
So, as long as we’re getting a
competitive price, we’re quite happy. Built into that price is the expectation of a certain level of service. We could go out and get a lower price. But, if you look at the carriers that would offer us a lower price, they wouldn’t get to the port on time. We build that into our thinking. So, on-time into the UK port is extremely important for us, as is price, and as is the carbon footprint of the people or the shipping lines that we’re using. We might use cheaper shipping lines, but it’s a very small percentage of our volume. Our main products are all carried on shipping lines where we know we are paying a natural premium; but, we’re paying that premium because we expect it be on time into the UK port, and we expect to have track-and-trace capabilities, and we expect to have a partner that is working towards collaborating with us. If a shipping line took a global look at our business model, and looked at our international growth plans, and was open to setting something up for the future, rather than the hear-and-now, and looked beyond 12-month contracting; then, I think there’s definitely be something that could be done around pricing, generally. There’s definitely something you can set up by way of a real collaborative partnership, one that considers the following: how do you offer great service to Marks &Spencer and their customers? But, that involves a breaking down of current ranks, and it also means doing something that’s different in the industry”. – JK, Marks & Spencer
