Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 77348, member: 636"] Zambia Cargo and Logistics Limited dropped 1.2 billion shillings on a reach stacker at Dar es Salaam port, and Deputy Minister David Kihenzile showed up to watch them flip the switch. The company went from moving 10,000 TEUs back in 2020 to over 50,000 by September, and CEO Vyonsi Manda says this machine pushes their annual capacity to 70,000 TEUs at the Mukuba Depot in Kurasini. Dar es Salaam handled 8.5 million metric tonnes last quarter, which apparently keeps proving the port works as Zambia's main cargo gateway. Fredrick Mwalusaka from Zambia's transport ministry called the whole thing a partnership win between the two countries. The gear is supposed to speed up container handling and cut down turnaround times while ZCL chases its 15-year goal of hitting 100,000 TEUs annually. [/QUOTE]
