Africa-Press<\/a> – Mozambique<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>The port of Beira, in central Mozambique, one of the busiest in the country, has introduced bulk shipment of copper exported from Southern Africa as an alternative to the current crisis in container transport, the managing company announced today.<\/p>\n

\u201cBulk transport is an effective alternative to transporting copper containers out of Beira,\u201d Cornelder said.<\/p>\n

The operation \u201cwas successful\u201d with \u201c15,000 tonnes of copper cathodes loaded between 30 September and 5 October 2021, with the vessel [that received the cargo] sailing in the early hours of 6 October\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe cargo logistics service providers at the port and the Beira corridor,\u201d which connects the city by road to the Machipanda border with Zimbabwe, \u201care committed to maximising the potential of bulk cargo transport to alleviate the current container crisis and will continue to offer this solution,\u201d the company describes.<\/p>\n

The port of Beira is one of the main exit points for copper produced in inland countries in southern Africa without direct access to the sea.<\/p>\n

During the 2018 and 2019 financial years, the port handled more than 270,000 tonnes of copper from Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRCongo).<\/p>\n

The growth continued in 2020: \u201cexports from DRCongo increased by 116%\u201d, and those from Zambia had \u201ca growth of 88%\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe total amount of copper handled exceeded 500,000 tonnes transported via containers\u201d in 2020 and is now being constrained by the impact of Covid-19 on logistics networks.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs such, the port and corridor members have taken important steps towards reintroducing bulk copper loading in Beira, almost two decades after they switched to the containerised loading system,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n

The firms Access World (cargo agent) and Terra Mar Logistics (ship agent) participated in the operation together with Cornelder.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
