How freight moves in and out of Gqeberha
Automotive manufacturing sets the rhythm here: component inbound from Gauteng and import containers through the port, finished vehicle and parts outbound. Automotive customers work to production-line deadlines, so late arrival is not a minor inconvenience — it stops a shift. We plan Gqeberha runs with that discipline, building in buffer for the long N2 approach from either Cape Town or Durban.
