DP World Maputo also handled more than 20 000 TEUs during the past month, compared to the previous record of just over 18 300 TEUs achieved in September 2019.<\/p>\n<p>DP World\u2019s investment of $90 million supported the transformation of the port\u2019s processes and capabilities, including new equipment and digital solutions. This, paired with ongoing development of staff, has enabled the terminal to handle some of the largest Southern Africa bound vessels.<\/p>\n<p>Due to its larger capacity, the port has significantly cut down on vessel waiting times, meaning maximum reliability for importers and exporters.<\/p>\n<p>Christian Roeder, Chief Executive Officer at DP World Maputo, said: \u201cThanks to the transformative upgrades at the port, DP World Maputo is continuing our growth strategy to offer the efficient gateway for Southern Africa customers. Our newly improved infrastructure and dedicated team mean that we can handle a new scale of operations, effectively, and with minimal waiting times.
